How many records are you thinking?

Also what are you aiming to achieve?  I currently can't see any place
where username actually matters?

Subject: dictionary of forum style usernames


Hi
I'm going to be doing a test against a forum type system and want to
have a go at bruteforcing a few logins. As it is a forum the login names
aren't likely to be usual "human" names so I'm looking for a dictionary
of names to try. Can anyone recommend one?

Robin
