You have a lot of time and a good computer? :)

Try John the ripper

 http://www.openwall.com/john/


"Out of the box, John supports (and autodetects) the following Unix
crypt(3) hash types: traditional and double-length DES-based, BSDI
extended DES-based, FreeBSD MD5-based (now also used on Linux and in
Cisco IOS), and OpenBSD Blowfish-based (now also used on some Linux
distributions). Also supported out of the box are Kerberos/AFS and
Windows NT/2000/XP LM (DES-based) hashes"

Subject: Blowfish cracker

I got tasked with trying to crack a couple of blowfish encrypted
passwords and I now need a cracker. I know that this is pretty
impossible but my boss wants a demonstration on how long it would take
to crack this. Could someone suggest a good cracker?
