Ok Ok ... there is an If...
You can crack an 8 character hash (a-z,A-Z,0-*) in 5 days IF... you have 500 cpu's running at a speed of *,000,000 combinations a second which is equivalent to a bottom of the line core 2 duo.
This would be *00&#*7; accurate. Check out the tables:
Code:
CRACK 8 LETTER PASSWORD (a-z A-Z 0-*) 25-Days
22****45*5780*0 Combinations
Split between *00 Computers
22****45*5780.* Combinations per computer
Fixed Rate of *,000,000 combinations per second would be

I'm curious to see how fast combinations are generated on a core 2 duo so if anyone has a computer with a core 2 duo please let me know!!!
If anyone would like to donate CPU power please let me know. If you guys want to start a donation for a supercomputer build it will only cost around $*00,000.
500 - Intel Core 2 Duo E4*00 - $60**5
500 - BIOSTAR P4M8*0-M7 TE LGA 775 VIA P4M8*0 Mother***rd - $224*5
500 - CORSAIR ValueSelect 5*2MB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM - $*4*5
