Here's a zip with a password generator given the password you know. There's a readme inside with instructions and more info.

What it contains:
A java program that generates a bunch of possibilities > Write all the possibilities to a .txt file.
A powershell script that tries these (original by 2112).

As for mac users, google: Powershell Mac



does this work on litecoin?


yeha well i am dealing with a 15,000ltc wallet ... guess i can wait till ltc hits $100 (considerring i had this wallet since ltc was 6c its not a big deal) 

 At those prices I might just hire a team to get it done if I am still unsuccessful lol
Revalin's script does. I'm running it now. Change the bitcoind lines in the script and its good to go

What kind of speed are you getting? I got a script from another user to help me out but it does 1 try a sec :/ 

I'm getting about 5-8 a second with an i7. I let it run for a couple of days with no luck. Thinking about throwing a 2gh/s mining rig at it as I haven't cracked it yet. I've got 21 7950 gpu's so I'm sure I'll get it eventually, if the price rises enough to put all my rigs on it. I read an article about a 25 gpu monster chucking out 350 billion guesses a second. Theres only 380ish LTC in it so I'm not sure its worth it yet.
