The Ultimate ZIP Cracker is designed for recovering lost passwords from many popular file types:
* MS-Word documents (*.DOC), Office 97-2003.
* MS-Excel documents (*.XLS), Office 97-2003.
* ZIP archives created by PKZIP, WinZip or by any compatible software.
* ARJ archives created by ARJ, WinArj or by any compatible software.
The program offers the following search methods:
* Password Wizard provides easy step-by-step password recovery.
* Brute Force Attack will test all possible passwords.
* Smart Search will test all "pronounceable" passwords.
* Dictionary Search can use a built-in or external dictionary.
* Date search will apply more than 5,000 date formats to a given date range.
* Customized search will use your own search template.
* Guaranteed decryption method will decrypt your .DOC or .XLS file regardless of password used. Extraordinarily fast on Pentium 4, takes only few days to decrypt!
* Plaintext attack will decrypt your whole encrypted .ZIP file if you have another unencrypted ZIP file (called plaintext file), which contains at least one file from the encrypted archive.
1. About the program
The Ultimate ZIP Cracker was initially created to recover ZIP file passwords. This is why the name has ZIP in it. Later we added support for other popular programs, but we still use the same name.
2. Password recovery
In most cases there is no way to instantly recover or decode a password. We only can try many different passwords for validity. The simplest search method consists of testing of all possible passwords. This method is called a 'Brute Force attack'. This is a slow method. Smart optimization algorithms are used in the Ultimate ZIP Cracker to make a Brute Force attack as fast as possible. However, because the Brute Force attack can take a very long time to find your lost password the Ultimate ZIP Cracker automatically saves the already searched results during the search. This way if a search is interrupted you can resume where you left off.
3. Password recovery Other search methods
Alternative search methods can be used when you know some additional information about the password you are trying to recover:
Password Wizard
This method combines several simple search methods. The Password Wizard is highly recommended when you are using the Ultimate ZIP Cracker for the very first time.
Smart search
This method also can be called a 'Human factor' search. For example, if your recall that your password was a pronounceable combination of English letters without numbers then the Smart search can find your password faster.
Dictionary search
You can use the dictionary of more than 214,000 words to search for the password. Different case combinations and word mutations are available. Also you can use your own dictionary (this can be any text file).
Date search
More than 5,000 date formats are used to generate password strings for a given date range.
Customized search
In most cases you remember the way you created the password. Say, your name + some number. Or some garbled word surrounded by two characters - ^pefrume&. Use this information to construct your search template. The template can be saved in a file and loaded back later.
Guaranteed decryption
This method guarantees that any encrypted Microsoft Word or Excel 97/2000 document will be decrypted within a reasonable time (about 2 weeks (or less) when running on an average Pentium IV system).
This method is NOT based on password testing.
Each password you enter is translated into 5-bytes (40 bits) value called 'key' that is then used to encrypt the document body. The Ultimate ZIP Cracker will test all possible key values to find a valid one.
The number of keys is very large: 1,099,511,627,776. However the number of possible passwords is much bigger. For instance, the number of character combinations in a 10-characters alpha-digital password is 839,299,365,868,340,224. In addition, the key testing is 3 times faster! The full search time for such a password is about 150 years!
Plaintext attack
This method will decrypt your whole encrypted ZIP file if you have another unencrypted ZIP file (called plaintext file) which contains at least one file from the encrypted archive. Click 'Find' to locate the plaintext file automatically. When finished decryption the program will try to decode the password, or, if you wish, will write the decrypted file to the disk.
The trial version of Ultimate ZIP Cracker will reveal your password free of charge (for up to 5 characters in length). For all passwords greater than 5 characters you will need to purchase the full version. In addition you can buy a single password recovery (one password).
Also the trial version will show you the first decrypted bytes of the files in the ZIP, ARJ or DOC so you know it works.
New features:
* Improved a support for some Office 95 documents.
* Added a support for latest multicore processors.
* Fixed some thread priority issues.
* Office XP recovery speed is significantly improved.
* A Pentium IV optimization code is added.
* A support for multiple processors is added for Guaranteed Decryption method. Works much faster if you have several CPUs (but don't expect any extra performance with just a Hyper-Threading P4).
* A support for older ZIP files is added.
* User interface is improved.
* An additional optimization allows better performance.
* A support for VBA passwords in Excel and Word files is added.
* The Plaintext attack on ZIP files is added.
* The program user interface is significantly improved.
* The Dictionary search - compositions method is removed. This method is superceded by the Customized search method which is much more flexible.
System requirements: Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP, Pentium class processor is preferred.
The program is optimized for modern CPUs (Pentium II - Pentium IV).
