Been trying to crack the picture for the last couple days.
I didn't know there was a thread.
Have been using Stegcracker to try multiple dictionaries of brute force attacks.
It seems to like 64 char+ passwords as those are the ones that get actual attempts.
Have been running for 2 days straight now.
Need newer dictionaries with long passwords.
Tried Rockyou, crackstation(failed, file too big), Apnee, all of Sublazer.
Nothing has worked, but the long PW's seem to be making actual attempts.
stegdetect came back as negative for message
I don't, that's where a large part of the problem.
My computer, while running the stegcracker, was doing about 30 tries per second.
I had 8 going at once, so 240 tries per second.
so about 20,000,000 per day, it would take about 50 days with my current usage.
If I used all my threads, it would take less than a month for a billion tries.
Opened the file in a HEX editor.
the first part of the file has unusual text in it.
Other pictures I've opened don't have this.

I got the SS pic directly from 4chan
make sure you click on the image, then save image as.
otherwise if you just click save image as, it saves the thumbnail small version.
