   Zip is irrelevent. he was speaking of RAR archives and they use AES. I don't   
   care how fast your cracker is, the fact is, it still has to try each   
   password, in turn and then verify the data and return a result. all of that   
   takes time.   
      
   ZIP is old news. it used rc-4 encryption (which is easily breakable by   
   todays standards). face it, you are behind the times here.
