Step 6 of 6

You are ready to start! Program will test your PC for speed and you see the speed on your computer and required time for full search (in case of brute-force attack). Please note, that speed may not be constant because of multitasking environment. Speed also depends on computer configuration, so different computers with same processors may have different speed.

If you select brute-force attack search mode, then you see also estimated time for complete search. Please note:

  1. This is a time for complete search, that is, in the 'worst case' the time we have to wait to get a password. In the 'best case' the very first password will be the right one. The probability to find a password during the time of t equals to p=t/T, for example, a probability to find the password during the half of time indicated equals to 50%.
  2. The time is specific for current computer.
  3. If you'll use multiple computers then time will be reduced.
