Re: anybody know good service for cracking md5?

You can try gpu brute-force, where the c/s is bigger than a normal
quad-core processor.

But you can't use wordlist because isnt make sense compared with c/s you
try to break a hashe using something like incremental way on JTR.

Actually BT4 comes with a md5_gpu_crack you need a VGA support with CUDA
or the ATI technology ( i don't remember the name right now )
