Windows
Windows is still the most popular operating system, and the method used to discover the login password is the easiest. The program used is called Ophcrack, and it is free. Ophcrack is based on Slackware, and uses rainbow tables to solve passwords up to 14 characters in length. The time required to solve a password? Generally 10 seconds. The expertise needed? None.

Simply download the Ophcrack ISO and burn it to a CD (or load it onto a USB drive via UNetbootin). Insert the CD into a machine you would like to gain access to, then press and hold the power button until the computer shuts down. Turn the computer back on and enter BIOS at startup. Change the boot sequence to CD before HDD, then save and exit.

The computer will restart and Ophcrack will be loaded. Sit back and watch as it does all the work for your. Write down the password it gives you, remove the disc, restart the computer, and log in as if it were you own machine.

Mac
The second most popular operating system, OS X is no safer when it comes to password cracking then Windows.

The easiest method would be to use Ophcrack on this, also, as it works with Mac and Linux in addition to Windows. However, there are other methods that can be used, as demonstrated below.

If the Mac runs OS X 10.4, then you only need the installation CD. Insert it into the computer, reboot. When it starts up, select UTILITIES > RESET PASSWORD. Choose a new password and then use that to log in.

If the Mac runs OS X 10.5, restart the computer and press COMMAND + S. When at the prompt, type:

fsck -fy

mount -uw /

launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist

dscl . -passwd /Users/UserName newpassword

That’s it. Now that the password is reset, you can login.

That;s how easy it is to hack any computer, windowz or mac Smile

happy hacking Smile

This is a good way to do this Claps

I always used to do this on Macs:

Shutdown the computer.
Startup holding command-s
Wait for all the text to load, and type:
/sbin/mount -uaw
rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
reboot

This will make a new admin account, it will go through the initial setup, like you did when you first got the Mac, and then, once you are through, go to System Preferences, Accounts, enter YOUR PASSWORD, that you created in the Apple Setup, and then it will show a bunch of accounts. Scroll down to the one that is the ADMIN, and press "Reset Password".

Voila, you are done Cool Man (aka Tustin)

You can make Ophcrack unusable by setting the HD to 1st in the boot sequence in front of CD.

Sweet Cool Man (aka Tustin)

And hey, i'm trying it on XP, which is kinda new to me, hence the username, theMAChacker, not theWINDOWShacker...lol

I downloaded it, tried it on USB, CD, DVD, all of that, and it didnt work :( Any suggestions? I have a Dell Dimension computer. I go into BIOS mode, and everything...
