I dont think RAR password cracking is illegal.....of course it can be used for cracking other users file....but there is no point in saying, IT MIGHT BE ILLEGAL, SO DONT USE IT....

@ Chindi_Chor
Google for "advanced RAR password recovery".....and buddie RAR password cracking is not simple, the algorithm used to encrypt RAR files is very strong and it takes a lot of processing power and time to bruteforce it.....

well no-cd cracks are meant to be used with original games. But ppl use it with pirated games, and so nocd cracks are illegal. same way password crackers are illegal too. Anyway, if u use bruteforce to crack a long password, run the pc for days

these kind a softwares mainlly do on brut-force attck for passes,but it takes 2 long time to break if pass is longer then 4 to 5 chars.

then otherone is alphabetic seq they ask u to put if u have some ideas about pass or any guesses and other is put lists of passses generated by machine and it will try every pass in list...but main thing is brut-force..trying all chars..and it sucks...
