I forgot my FlashFXP password to my webserver and can't do anything until morning without my password.

I remember I used to have one of these to retrieve my AIM password. Anyone know of a good program?

Yup, I remember a little proggy that showed you the characters "underneath" the ***'s. Sorry, can't remember what it was.

I made one of these in vb long ago and even got it on cnet.com then hypermart kicked me off for hogging bandwidth then i quit.

I made one of these to retrieve my juno password back in the day...it was made in vb3.0 w/ the vbwfind.dll file and some API calls to like wm_gettext...I think wm_gettext got the text out of all boxes for you...

I did that and took it a step further, i belive it was vb5. I found some api calls on the microsoft api guide thing on their site to change the masked character of a textbox...so bascily i was able to mask/unmask any textbox :)

I had once forgotten my dial-up password that were stored in the computer, and I had a hard time trying to retrieve the password. In the end I had to ask my ISP to reset it.

Not that I need it anymore, but would Revelation work on this?
