Fixes #6 and makes the algorithm to have a linear response time O(n) in relation to the size of the password instead of an polynomial O(n^C) as it used to as reported by https://github.com/twosixlabs/acsploit.

Thanks to @Tostino for bringing this up.

result seems to be O(N) instead of O^N which is much better.
