What prize do we get if we crack it? :lol:

Looks a lot like the hex digest of NIST's secure hash algorithm, known as SHA-1. Might also be the competing MD5 algorithm. These things are used to send passwords on in e-mail and are tough to crack!

dude its a LM Hash(local SAM windows password).

Ah! The one sometimes referred to as lame Hash

Google HEX decoder, many of them comes up XD
