Hi!

IronGeek wrote a cool article about cracking local SAM with SYSKEY:

The above article is about Windows Vista Beta 2 but it also links to
other articles he wrote about the same topic.

Hi,
  I've found cachedump to be reliable in the past, lsadump caused some
crashing problems for me at the time so I didn't use it.

Could somebody tell me how to go about retrieving the hashes from the
offline sam file. Is there a way? And if so what form do the hashes come
in, DES?


Thanks
