Overview
--------

A program to recover lost or forgotten passwords to
files/documents created in Microsoft Word: password to open,
password to modify, document protection password. Most 
passwords are recovered instantly; "password to open" for
Word 97/2000/XP documents, however, is very strong and requires
brute-force and dictionary attacks (plese look at the
help file for details), which are effective for short (up
to 7-8 chars) or simple passwords only.

If you want to recover passwords to file/documents created
in other MS Office components (Excel, Outlook, Outlook
Express, VBA, user-level security in Access) and other
Microsoft software (such as Project, Backup, Mail, Schedule+),
please look at Advanced Office 2000 Password Recovery which
is available at:

Registration
------------

Unregistered (trial version) has some limitations; fully
registered version costs $30 (personal license) or $60
(business license). See "order.txt" for more details.
