Device Password Generator

This was a quick program I wrote to generate a unique device password .  The password is generated from the

• Device Type
• User name
• 63 character string aka Seed String

The important thing was that the password should be repeatable, when the correct Device Type and User Name is entered.
This is because it is used as a bios setup password for the device.

The password is created by this process:

So, for the technically minded, it’s actually part of an MD5 Hash.  And good enough for what we’re protecting.

You can download the compiled program here, and the source code here.
You need Visual Basic 2005 or later to compile it.
