If that's len8 alpha, then it's 26^8 combination.
Thanks for the suggestion ! I have just worked it out, (may be totally wrong here) but I think it should take 37 days on my computer. I wasn't far out with my original guess was I !!

Oh, ok ... I guess my request to show the last checked password in hashcat's update (status) screen will be my only hope to enable me to resume a task successfully.
Thanks for your help.
Edit...
I just thought I would come back to clarify something before it is commented on.
When I asked for hashcat+ to show the last password checked I meant while it is piped mode. I understand hashcat+ cannot know where it is or what order things are due to the cache as explained before.
However I assume that when in piped mode as hashcat+ is being supplied passwords in order this request would work. Maybe not, I don’t know.
Thanks.
