Tripcode decoder?

Name: Anonymous 2007-12-03 19:48

is there anyway to convert a tripcode into the password for that tripcode, im using tripsage and I see that you can put in a word you want to see in a trip code and it produces results of passwords that would produce a tripcode with those letters in it, so if we were to take a complete tripcode someone has and enter it into that field, in theory it should eventually produce the 1 password that produces that tripcode, however i have a core 2 duo e6600 which can run 170,000 crypts per second but with over 10^80 possible combinations(numbers + letters + capital letters + symbols, and 10 characters in a tripcode) it would take litteraly much more than trillions of years to run through every combination. Any other suggestions?

So really, even though the key text for crypt itself is only 56 bits, there's almost -- but not *quite* -- two additional bits of entropy to a tripcode.
it's not quite that simple. several characters ('&', '>', '<', '"', etc.) get replaced with HTML entities, so those characters can't appear in the key. shifted versions of them can, but in the second and third character positions it eliminates those extra bits. and the character & is always followed by one of several fixed strings ("amp;", "gt;", "lt;", "quot;", etc.).
