So you want us to teach you how to run a program that tries to crack passwords on a *nix box? I don't think so.

I am working on my first webpage and my friend gave me this thing which saves the peoples passowrds and he says that it is 99% secure. I just wanted to see if it was secure enough to put on the webpage. That's why I want to use this program. No I'n not a hacker and do not intend to be at all I just want to test the security of my own webpage that is comming up. Because it is a webpage where you have to order things and I don't want any problems with people getting into other's accounts and retrieving information about them.

So please can somebody help me?
