This is really neat. Adobe stated the hashes are 3DES/ECB.

So, say I have a two block password with '6aMjgZFLzYg' as the second block... when I just search for that block I see alot of hints that point to '123456789' as a password, implying the plaintext for that block is simply '9'. So now I believe the password is 9 characters long and ends with '9'.
