Simics is more configurable than the virtual pc's out there. In simics you can specify cache's of different sizes, different replacement policies etc. So if you are a cpu or system designer, Simics is very useful to you. It is slower than VMWare so you're just interested in running an app then virtual machines will probably be faster.
I've seen the simics pub folder before but I'm not sure if there is a way to crack twofish. I believe twofish is not susceptible to clear text attack either (i.e. if you knew the unencoded first line in the file say for eg) and I know that the tf keys are 128 bits - brute force would take forever. I would really be interested in seeing if anybody could crack it.

I didn't realize that they weren't even downloadable because the one I tried to DL worked. I guess I just got lucky. Try package 55, it seems to be working. Of course, it's 100+MB and no guarantee about breaking the twofish crypto, but you never know.
