Description


When you login into a web site with user name and password, you sometimes have the option to store the password in your computer. If you choose to save the password, in the next time that we'll visit this site, the password field will be automatically filled with your password, but you won't be able to view it, because the password-box shows the password as sequence of asterisks (****).


This utility reveals the passwords stored behind the asterisks in the web pages of Internet Explorer 5.0 and above. You can use it for recovering a lost web site password, if it's stored on your computer.
Reply:There are programs for doing that (I've run across them in the past).





The following link will take you to the SnapFiles page with free password recovery programs - you may even find the same one as you had!





Just go to:

Hope that helps - good luck!
Reply:nice try stalker ... did you steal someone's computer?
Reply:goto www.downloads.com and there are programs that are freeware that will allow you to see what information is under the astericks
Reply:that would defeat the whole purpose of blanking out the password
