Crashing PC along with errors

[pdo]

So can't crack your hash because it isn't the hash for the password you think it is.

You think your plaintext is "password", but it's actually "password\n", that is: password followed by a newline

I'll demonstrate:

pdo@newmac ~ % echo password | md5
286755fad04869ca523320acce0dc6a4

but if I use the "-n" option for echo (meaning don't append the newline)

pdo@newmac ~ % echo -n password | md5
5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99

ahhhhhh now I see, I mixed up the hash when I was testing, what a stupid mistake! Sorry to bother you. thanks for your time.

No worries, happens to everybody in the beginning.
