I need a brute force script to get my email password back - Developers

I got paranoid and changed my email password to some cryptic-ass combination of letters/numbers. Of course, I forgot it after three days. I can still remember some of the numbers, though, and I know which specific letters/numbers are in the password. Question is, is there a brute force script out there that can find a password from specific numbers and letters?

WHy would you need that ? Doesn't your email provider gives you a way to get it back when lost ? You vile script-kiddie :v:

What, you mean the recovery email address that I didn't set and the recovery question that I can't remember? I use Gmail by the way.

Bruteforcing gmail isn't going to work (captcha) and is a great way to get your internet connection terminated.

I don't mean like that, I mean it gives me list of possible combinations (because I know the specific numbers and letters) that I enter manually. I know the places of some of the letters so there can't be that many combinations. I don't care how long it takes me to enter them manually, I want my damn account back.

If you don't want to believe me, fine.

[img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5502511/holy.png[/img_thumb] Here, that's all the combinations possible considering the password is made of six alphanumeric chars (a-z; A-Z; 0-9) and that the 4 first ones are 'aBaa'. [quote]I don't care how long it takes me to enter them manually[/quote] For 6 characters, you'd have 61^6 possibilities, or 51.520.374.361 possibilities. Considering that it would take you 20 seconds to try one password, that'd take you 1.030.407.487.220 seconds, or 17.173.458.120 minutes, or 286.224.302 hours, or 11.926.012 days, or 32674 years. For 8 characters, you'd have 61^8 possibilities, or 191.707.312.997.281 possibilities. For 10 characters, you'd have 61^10 possibilities, or 713.342.911.662.882.601 possibilities And so on. So, you'd be dead before even trying an infinitesimal part of the possible passwords. Better not do it by hand son.

No, I'm only missing two or three digits in the password, and there are five letters that could go into any of those digits, in any order, and not repeat a single letter.

Do you realize that'd take you over a month of constant trials ?

I'll give you guys more information. The password is 8_5_2_xxx, where the numbers are the ones I can remember and underscores are the ones I can't. The x's are also numbers/letters that I can remember but won't tell because some asshole will hijack my account when I get this solved. The letters that can go in the underscores are "x, d, f, c, v, b, n". Any three can go in but none can repeat. Also, the "d" and "f" can't go in the first and second underscores.

You can do that by hand can't you?

How about you learn from your lesson and move on? You shouldn't have put bullshit in the recovery field with that kind of password. You were just asking to get locked out.

Contact support.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the correct number for possibilities for a 9 character (alphanumeric only) password 61P9 (Permutations...) and not 61^9 and thus in his exact instance there is 7P3 which is 210 possibilities. Since I'm almost certain that this is correct, he should disregard all of the other statistics in this thread since they were all based on the idea that 61^9 is the number of possible 9-character passwords. Not to mention, he's definitely trying to hack someones account.

I'M NOT HACKING AN ACCOUNT. But thanks anyway...

Thanks "anyway"?! I deserve your first born son!

[QUOTE=Aidan Thorn;22542253]I'M HACKING AN ACCOUNT. So thanks and please have my first born child as a reward...[/QUOTE] yet again, fixed.

Aaron, fuck off. Just because someone lost their account credentials and needs a method you wouldn't normally use for it doesn't automatically make it so they are hacking someone else.

[QUOTE=xxncxx;22544709]Aaron, fuck off.

In this case, his, very likely.

I wouldn't even attempt that. Chances are even if you get your account back, you'll get busted for hacking it. Solid proof that it IS your account could be hard to find. I would try resetting it with the whole secret question thing or contacting your provider directly.

I forgot my hotmail password once, and my secret question junk was old and I didn't remember it. "What is your favorite hockey team" and I don't even like hockey anymore and "Who was your first girlfriend" and I don't even remember. Maybe he's legit. trying to get his account back, maybe he's trying to hack someone. Stop making a big deal over it, if he gets in trouble it's his fault.

Contact support, easiest and fastest way to get it back. There aren't really any other alternatives if you can't remember your secret question/answer.

If it was legitimately his account, he would contact support rather than try to brute force his account. Anyway, if he really did just forget this password, he's not very bright and deserves to have his account lost. You shouldn't set your password to something if you don't know for a fact you can remember it and if you still do, you should always set your security question again so it's something fresh that you can answer.

All my passwords have a physical attachment to me such as memories or actions. :v: [editline]06:12PM[/editline] Please don't hack me.

That's unbelievably insecure. All your passwords should have absolutely nothing to do with you and most people recommend to avoid putting real words in them.

The only way someone would know any of my passwords is to have been looking through my eyes since I was 2.
