I ran the program - it took about 2 seconds to produce the results below. It needs code in there to sort the file by absolute value of remaining candidates.

My strategy looked at a range of 1 million and sieved lightly over many $mult (typically 1 to 20000) to get the candidates that left the smallest remaining values for pfgw. I had a separate program for that. Code: ABC 17*40009#/30030+$a
