Post by: UKnowWhatItIs: welcome to my traps....game over on August 12, 2007, 04:15:48 PM: From what I know there is no possibility of getting around the password. You either have it or you don't.

Post by: AboveTheLaw on August 12, 2007, 05:12:53 PM: If you remember the site you got it from, check back on it and look around for what the password may be.

Otherwise, the only possibility is to guess it or use a password cracker which will take a LONG time.

If nothing else, search out the same file from another source.

It may either be:

Sometimes the file is case sensitive

Not sure about that other file, if you can give me the name of the file's contents I'll see if I can get the password
