ok im sorry I'll try again. when i right click in cain and select the admin account to brute force is says 2 hashes loaded for that one password. which corresponds with you saying that there are two 7 character parts to it. My question was I am already bruteforcing in the 8 range XXXXXXXX. But since it is two sevens should I stop it and change the min and max characters both to seven because once I got the first seven I stopped it and moved it up to 8. I was thinking to crack the whole password since there are apparently 14 character i need to move it up to 14. But if it is two differant hashes I should put it back down to seven right? And also what if it is only 8 or 9 character. I'm sorry if this isn't making sense Im just a little confused.

I'm no expert on L0phtcrack, but I would think if you have the LM hashes the longest string you wouldever want to brute with is 7. What character set are you using?

[dark5yntax]

I'm using all leters and numbers but that is it. the first part contained only letters and numbers and im assuming so does the second but i brute forced from 1 character up to 7 again and i stillhave 7 question marks. what would happen if they are null. just place holders. would it still have question marks?

k so the first half was we3king
and the second half was s
so the full password was we3kings
how come the bruteforce didnt pick it up
when I bruteforced the second half even with
the letter s?

One more thing in the pwdump file i have there is a domain and hashes for that as well.
what exactly is that? another password?
