Today i'm going to tell you how to crack a windows password. Basically
it's an old trick but some of our reader wants to know about it. So
guys, one thing any hacker should know is how to hack into login account
of any operating system. Major Operating Systems that are used these
days are Windows, Linux and Mac. So today I will show you how to hack
into these Operating Systems. Are you curious how easy it is for someone
to gain access to your computer? If so, read on to see the technique
one might use to figure out your computer password.
Windows
Windows being very popular has a lot of programs available which can be
used to hack the login password. One of the most successful program is
Ophcrack, and it is free. Ophcrack is based on Slackware, and uses
rainbow tables to solve passwords up to 14 characters in length. The
time required to solve a password? Generally 10 seconds. The expertise
needed? None.
Simply download the Ophcrack ISO and burn it to a CD (or load it onto a
USB drive via UNetbootin). Insert the CD into a machine you would like
to gain access to, then press and hold the power button until the
computer shuts down. Turn the computer back on and enter BIOS at
startup. Change the boot sequence to CD before HDD, then save and exit.
The computer will restart and Ophcrack will be loaded. Sit back and
watch as it does all the work for your. Write down the password it gives
you, remove the disc, restart the computer, and log in as if it were
you own machine.
You can download OphCrack from the following link:

Linux
Linux is an operating system which is quickly gaining popularity in
mainstream, but not so common that you’re likely to come across it.
Though Mac and Linux are both based on Unix, it is easier to change the
password in Linux than it is OS X.
To change the password, turn on the computer and press the ESC key when
GRUB appears. Scroll down and highlight ‘Recovery Mode’ and press the
‘B’ key; this will cause you to enter ‘Single User Mode’.
You’re now at the prompt, and logged in as ‘root’ by default. Type
‘passwd’ and then choose a new password. This will change the root
password to whatever you enter. If you’re interested in only gaining
access to a single account on the system, however, then type ‘passwd
username’ replacing ‘username’ with the login name for the account you
would like to alter the password for.
Mac
Finally we take on Mac’s OS X which as we said earlier is based on Unix
and is difficult to change password compared to Linux but nothing is
impossible to be hacked.
The easiest method would be to use Ophcrack on this also as it works
with Mac and Linux in addition to Windows. However, there are other
methods that can be used, as demonstrated below.
If the Mac runs OS X 10.4, then you only need the installation CD.
Insert it into the computer, reboot. When it starts up, select UTILITIES
> RESET PASSWORD. Choose a new password and then use that to log in.
If the Mac runs OS X 10.5, restart the computer and press COMMAND + S. When at the prompt, type:
fsck -fy
mount -uw /
launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist
dscl . -passwd /Users/UserName newpassword
That’s it. Now that the password is reset, you can login.
