Subject: Re: Need help with hashes from isocode plaintext

Thanks for your comments.  I'm sorry if I'm a bit obtuse on this question - ordinarily, I would not have such difficulties.  Unfortunately, I'm still not able to crack it.


Can you or anyone show a wordlist and corresponding execution of john to crack the hash 
005f3942106f3bc5a392dcde686d87f0 and give the plaintext geländerxx?  I believe I should properly understand it from a working example.

md5 does not do unicode. So the special a in there is going to be the
ansi interpretation of unicode.. the ansi characters 0xC3 and 0xA4

what I normally do is take a dictionary and then make sure I set the
--encoding to not be UTF-8 but ansi.. when dealing with md5sum.. then
the md5sum's of someone using unicode actually seem to come out.
