Teach me how to run/use the birthday cracker. +rep

[Kristin]

I feel stupid, but I have no idea how to run java programs. I'd like to know how to run it on my Mac, but if you tell me how to do it on windows, that will be ok too.

I have the accounts in format, and I have downloaded the cracker.

[Ben]

Double click the .jar.
File (on the program window) -> Load List
Start Cracking

And whalah. You might have errors if the pw's are wrong...it takes a while too so be paitient :)

[Kristin]

Is that for windows or Mac? Because it doesn't seem to work that way. Both windows and Mac tell me I don't have any program to open the .jar file.

I run a mac. You might need to download Java.

Apple Button -> Software Updates -> Let it run -> Java

Ok let me do some updates. :)
I'm lazy about updates.

[Ben]

Gotta keep up with those Updates. Don't forget to restart your computer too :P

[Kristin]

Yeah, I just hate having to restart when I'm in the middle of something...which is always. Haha! I've needed to restart for like a week tho...

Ok, so there is no .jar file anymore...? I re-downloaded the birthday cracker because I couldn't find it on my computer, but all I got was a folder full of .class files.

Get on MSN xD

[Kristin]

Ok, so I opened "main.class" and it opened the program. Is that going to cause problems later?

[Ben]

I don't know. XD I haven't experienced this. Can you get on MSN

[Kristin]

I just sent you a PM. I'm on. :D
