What I'm trying to do is build a comprehensive list for Network Security Admins (and myself) to refrence as to which tools are available to crack WEP. I know about AirSnort and WEPCrack, what are the others available out there?

After gathering enough packets the keys can be successfully guessed! These programs are patches for your wireless NIC driver that put it into promiscuous mode. There are many weaknesses inherent in the RC4 algorithm and its implementation. The source code for it was even made public in 1994 after a hacker 'cracked' it. Essentially, the algorithm that WEP is based on, is now freeware. JohnDo you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
