md5 brute force hashcat

yes I'm using windows 7
numbers and letters uppercase lowercase
7 characters
a single hash

OK try this.

I have used oclhashcat-plus in this example because you wanted to just test length 7. Normally if you are brute forcing a single MD5 you would probably want to use oclhashcat-lite. However I personally like oclhashcat-plus better and when you want to test a list of MD5 you will have to use oclhashcat anyway.

oclHashcat-plus32.exe -a 3 -m 0 --force -1 ?u?l?d "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1 -o found.txt

Run this in the same directory as oclhashcat-plus.

oclhashcat-plus.exe call the program.

-a 3 is the attack mode, in this case brute force.

-m 0 tells ocllhashcat to test MD5

--force is because we are testing a single MD5 in oclhashcat-plus (don't worry too much about this now)

-1 defines the value of 1

?u?l?d Upper Lower Digit

"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" put your hash here.

?1?1?1?1?1?1?1 Length 7 using definition of 1

-o Found.txt Out put found password to file called "Found.txt"
