The tables used by Kraken are not even rainbow tables, it is an application specific TMTO (time-memory-trade-off) combining rainbow tables and distinguished points to efficiently attack A5/1. If you haven't seen any A5/1 code in Kraken, you have not looked close enough. Nikos >>> >> Cheers, Joel Eriksson ClevCode
