Jeesh, lighten-up.  Password cracking software doesn't have to be illegal.  There are legitimate uses for them.  Since it was a computer repair shop there is even a possibility it was requested by another customer who had forgotten their password. As for running the odometer, I am sure that the time you spent re-installing the OS caused more wear and tear than the 30 minutes the tech spent testing the software.  You are worried about what might be left on your computer, but you should be more worried about the agency that might search the hard drive of an otherwise OUTSTANDING citizen.
