Hacking Myspace Passwords | keystroke logger
"Keystroke logging (often called keylogging) is a method of capturing and recording user keystrokes. Keylogging can be useful to determine sources of errors in computer systems, to study how users interact with systems, and is sometimes used to measure employee productivity on certain clerical tasks. Such systems are also highly useful for law enforcement and espionage—for instance, providing a means to obtain passwords or encryption keys and thus bypassing other security measures. Keyloggers are widely available on the Internet."
For hacking Myspace passwords there are two keystroke capturing methods; software and hardware.
A hardware based keylogger is usually a device attached to the keyboard, which in turn attaches to the computer. The keylogger stores all the keystrokes in its internal memory, which can then be recovered at a later date.
A software keylogger is installed on the computer's hardrive as an application. It does the same thing as the hardware logger, except that it stores the keystrokes on your computer.
Either solution would work when hacking Myspace passwords because the end result is the same. The hard part would be sifting through all the keystrokes trying to figure out the user name and password combination.

Hacking Myspace Passwords | Personal Information
- There first and last name
- There date of birth
- there parents, kids, or partners names
- the names of there favorite sports teams
- Find out there SSN
- find out any other passwords they may have for any other systems
- try to find a PIN that may be associated with an account
This makes it easier to hack Myspace passwords since people will normally use a persons name in the password, usually followed by a 1 or 0. Finding there personal information is the key.

Hacking Myspace passwords
- 123, 1234 or 123456 (depending on the length of the password)* password (you'd be surprised how many people just use 'password')
- the city where you live, were born, or of your favorite sports team
- the last 4 digits of your social security number* your wife/girlfriends, husband's/boyfriends, or kids name
- the above with a 0 or 1 at the end
- the above's birthdate
These are the most common as they are easy to remember and most people don't want to be bothered with there passwords. I would recommend concentrating on this list, or a combination of this list, for quite a while while doing your own trial and error. If you have tried countless combinations with no luck, it's time to go on to phase two.
Brute Force Attack
To summarize, a brute force attack is a method of defeating a cryptographic scheme by trying a large number of possibilities. So, basically, you're throwing large amounts
of data at a server to see if you can get lucky and find the userid/password
combinations. It's kind of like throwing enough rice at the wall to see what will
stick. While it is mathematically possible to password hack an account with this
technique, it would be very difficult for an amateur to do. A brute force attack is
expected to be able to find a key using a formula equal to half the size of the key
space. If there are 2/64 possible keys, then a brute force attack is expected to find
the password hack in 2/63 attempts. This is a very computation-intense search and
even if you did find the combination, you have to hope it's not encrypted so you can
use it.
The amount of time required to break a 128 bit key is also daunting. Each of
the 2128 possibilities must be checked. This is an enormous number,
340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 in decimal. A device that could check a billion billion keys (1018) per second would still require about 1013 years to exhaust the key space.So as you can imagine, this is usually not a good option.But if your interested, you can find brute force software on the Internet.
Are there any other options? If you dig around on some search engines you will find
all sorts of sites on how to hack Myspace passwords. Know this, some of these posts are
from true hacker types that have in-depth knowledge of programming and system
security holes that others would not be able to grasp; and some are just using
scripts they found posted elsewhere that may nor may not work, or may be a virus. If
this is a topic you are really interested in pursuing you need to know what you are
doing. You will need to know the consequences of your actions because hacking
Myspace passwords, as with any kind of hacking, pushes all sorts of limits in ethical and legal boundaries.
