edit: i added some random word in the initial password and it did the same thing, said found it! but of course it was the wrong password. It seems to think the first guess is the right one.

That's strange. Try running this script and paste the output into this thread.

Code:

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require "open3"
$electrum = 'C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Brute\electrum-1.9.5.exe'
i,o,t = Open3.popen2e($electrum, "-o", "getseed")
i.puts "wrong-password"
i.close
puts o.read.inspect
puts t.value.inspect

Ran from the command prompt:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Brute>tryagain.rb
"Error: Wallet file not found.\nType 'electrum create' to create a new wallet, o
r provide a path to a wallet with the -w option\n"
#

Wallet, electrum, and script all in same folder.

i tried adding the -w flag in different ways pointing to the wallet file but it kept throwing syntax errors.
