Keyloggers, password hash cracking, and more python fun

Worked through the keylogger over the past few days. Been having fun seeing what I can get it to pull. I want to see if I can pull location of mouse pointer too, that is next step.
Built a small python program that will crack password hashes, it is rather simple at the moment, but holds promise. I'll release source on these when they are working at least most of the way.

Python is a fun language and I use it for most simple things I do around my systems. Need to take a closer look at 3 as everything I do is in 2.7 still. I use python for organization and cleaning my HDDs. I am a habitual data hoarder. I have random text files of notes I wrote over 10 years ago... I think it's time to clean.
I use one script that looks at files last access date and generates a report for me. That way I can go look at them and see if I still want to keep them. I ignore system and program files. This is almost exclusively pointed at my data server. It also will read from a blacklist and will ignore files there (picture folders). I have it currently set at 6 months but probably should drop that down.
