Re: The Manuall will be cracked in...

Not that I would be stupid enough to do it, but with a P4 it would take about a week to crack a 4 character password, somewhere in the neighborhood of 7 weeks to crack a 5 character password, and it just gets incredibly large after that. Employing a "supercomputer" really won't help because anything that could crack that fast enough probably isn't running Windows which is what most "password recovery" programs run on.

It's pointless...just wait a day.
