I believe l0pth crack is also using dictionary attacks. And knowing that
most users are just really using some common words such as family
members, pet names, "sex", "god", etc, I think you can crack those. Now
you only have to bother with some tech-savvy users who's using hard to
guess passwords, and I think most of 'em won't even mind changing
passwords anyway... chances are, those kind of people change passwords
periodically.
