Hash Suite for Android: free password hash cracker in your pocket

Subject: iDEFENSE Security Advisory 11.06.02

I recall a movie plot where the hacker/cracker/whatever installed a trojan
program via a computer game an administrator was playing, which was just as
believable at the time as it is now (unlike some of the hacking movies). I
can't remember the exact name, I think it started with s (but not
"sneakers"). 

However, these days servers ship with such poor graphics card that you can't
even play tuxracer on them. ;-)

If we could learn one thing from September 11th 2001, it would be the utter
absurdity of moral relativism.
