- update to 1.7.4.2:

+ Major performance improvements
  + John will now tend to use more memory to achieve better speed
  + Some previously missed common website passwords found on public 
    lists of "top N passwords" have been added to the bundled common 
    passwords list.
  + Support for back-references and "parallel" ranges has been 
    added to the word mangling rules preprocessor.
  + The notion of numeric variables has been introduced into the 
    rules engine.  
  + New rule commands have been added
  + New rule reject flags have been added
  + The default rulesets for "single crack" and wordlist modes have 
    been revised to make use of the new features, for speed, to 
    produce fewer duplicates, and to attempt additional kinds of 
    candidate passwords.
  + The default for the Idle setting has been changed from N to Y.
