www.wpacracker.com by Moxie Marlinspike

This is a review of wpacracker.com.. They tested 135 million words against my wpa handshake capture file. But were unable to get the passphrase. Which is thedonkey in elite speak. e = 3 , o = 0 etc. Not to easy with most dictionaries. According to the website they have a really decent word list, which combines words and phrases and elite speak. I will try it out on another handshake some other time.. Costs $17.00 through amazon payments system... It appears only the half mode is available at the moment which takes about 40mins if there is no queue.. heard about it on twitter. ....... ..... ......Have fun........

yeh good review. Personally i think if they dont crack it they should not charge the full price.. It could just be a dummy site which harvests your $17 and says oh yeh we tried but couldnt find it sorry.. but cheers for your money

@RichyBTheking You're probably right. I had my debit card details used to transfer money through western union a short time time after using this site. But It could have been Pizza Hut though. Moxie Marlinspike doesn't appear to be a criminal with evil on his mind. (how does he make his money). That SSL strip was pretty cool (intelligent) so maybe not evil hacker...

Could be a dummy site, all you would need is to check the wordlist.

Try Ph33rbot coz pureh@te  has a larger wordlist.

@yogafireyogaflame23 but it would be interesting to see if "thedonkey" is in there. has anyone tried that? It's not really worth spending 17 bucks on...

[yogafireyogaflame23]

A good dictionary attack should combine words, so it would make sense to me to write a dictionary attack algorithm that takes a dictionary list and then makes all possible 2-word combinations from it. And from there, a good dictionary attack algorithm SHOULD substitute in l33t-speak. that's a no-brainer. "the" is too short to be a passphrase, so it probably isn't in the wordlist to begin with. therefore combinations like "thedonkey" won't be in there. and hence "th3d0nk3y" won't either.

Heh, there is one site that charge only after successful cracking

recoverwpa com - real deal!
