'Pound sand' is the only way to describe trying to break the AES encryption used in RAR. Unless the person used a passphrase that is small/short, or a 'dictionary' plaintext word (there are 'cracker' programs out there that will attempt to break in with the xxxx words in the english and other popular langs) but if they used a random string generator with more than 4-5 characters, forget it.
One can always burn computer time, but if the person was half-way trying to 'lock' it up..... no.
I use rar on usenet every day, with a random generator to produce long (15-30) alphanumeric strings as passwords, and the fastest computer on the planet would take longer than the age of the universe to crack it.
Lots of these 'subsciption' movie/cracker sites use rar to lock up their warz, others post using 'open' techniques to 'hide' their contents; you may be able to decrypt if you know or can surmise the technique employed.
The majority of the rar files that need a pass code to extract usually have a nfo or paid nzb sites give you them, if not, most of the time the files are fake and send you to other sites to fill out surveys and shit , pay now or pay later if you want the files extracted in this century:DQuote:

Or better yet use Torrents, they usually don't come in Rar form....I rarely do, but there is the option...
Nice to see you Beck38:)
