As they are using openssl. Please test below BTC Protkey. Encrypytion Password: password BTC Address: 1LosTCk8ybHaYc9Ht759ym21xHSPe3pskw BTC Protkey: PsV3ocy3nbUL37oLrmFvePXciKtnZzqspjmKgm5HqdBwoNwgkzc4XHzWoHMHvkkWMj4F

The format of "BTC Protkey" (base58 encoded string) is different from the format expected by *bruteforce-salted-openssl" (binary file starting with Salted__).

I also took a quick look to the source code of vanitygen, and the encryption parameters they use (e.g. variable iteration count) are not identical to what is used by the openssl enc ... command.
