Forum Thread: How to Steal an Online Password

Windows is a brick for hacking. Hydra is probably the tool you are looking for, which, don't even question it, is better to run on Linux (don't even know if a Windows port exist). Try Linux on a Virtual Machine in windows and do some tests with THC Hydra. Experts might know more.

Thank you. Yes i am familiar with hydra in windows. Not an expert yet, just learning. But, to use hydra online i sure need linux for a better performance which i want to avoid right now because of my current PC's low power. So i was looking for, if there is any other easy way.

A machine with lower power would thrive in a Linux environment. I run 2 high activity Linux servers (one being Kali) on an older box and they share 5 GB of RAM.

If you truly want to get into this website, and know the target you want to breach, you should try social engineering. Metasploit has a great Social Engineering campaign system and SET in Kali is fantastic as well.

As Ciuffy said, Windows is useless for hacking, and its a good way to get caught if what you're doing happens to be "Black Hat."

As both Ciuffy and Alex Storm Williams have said, Linux is a far superior OS. It's more efficient, you have more control, and all the tools you will need are developed specifically for Linux.

We don't care if you can't or don't want to use Linux for hacking, our response will remain the same and I would suggest you heed our advice rather than to stubbornly refuse.

If you are new to hacking go here to download a Kali Linux image, install it to USB and follow the tutorials on Linux basics here.

There is no simple way to hack; you have to put the work in to be successful and more importantly, to not be caught.
