LophtCrack and SAM Passwd

I have a system that recently got hacked and the passwords on the
machine were compromised. I want to get back into this system for
forensic reasons. Unfortunately when I dumped the SAM file and tried
cracking it with LophtCrack nothing worked. I ran it for a good 10
hours with no success on any account. I was thinking maybe my word list
was not big enough. So the questions are:

A. Anyone have any good sources for large word lists?
B. Any other application for cracking SAM's that I have not thought of?
I have ran it through a couple smaller security apps (names escape me at
the moment.)

Thanks,

Bill Woodhams
