My conclusion was exactly that. However, Soxrok2212 (and nobody else) was ever able to provide a serial number file as requested.
The serial number file is run through sha1, then the hash from that operation is used to generate the password. I've completely reverse engineered the process (except for the sha1 function itself, of course) with great results, but without proper input, (a serial number file), my results are useless.
Knowing the layout and contents of the serial number file is the key to this crack. Knowing what's in that file will result in a proper sha1 output, and thus, the proper keys. And keep in mind, it is the FILE that feeds sha1, NOT just the serial number.
The other bad news is it seems that I've lost my 599... I can't, for the life of me, remember where I put it so for now, it's not likely that I can even examine that file.
