Hi Lukas,

Thanks for your answer.

I intend to use just jTr because at the moment it's the only too that I
really enjoy and I have tons of scripts to automate attacks for them.
However, based on Magnum answer I may reconsider, since looks like that
sadly competitors are very ahead with GPU technology. :(

I will be cracking basically 95% of the time the following hashes:NTLMv2,
netntlm, netntlmv2, MySQL (local hashes and network), MSSQL (local hashes
and network), lotus, mscash and mscash2.

Further answers and suggestions are very welcome. :)

Thanks
