Encrypted Files Password by junglur on 05-10-2004 at 11:10 AM

Well same as several other people, basicly i can't get into my encrypted files and for some people i have upto 6 diferent files for them. i've tried unticking encryption and letting it decrypt everything itself but it asks for a password and i've tried every single password i use and none of them work. i had my password as something then changed it but then i changed it back.....its only ever been 2 passwords. but some of them open and some don't. i really need some of these files for my work i've been doing. is there any solution? if not is there any kind of brute forcing tool i can use? or someway of breaking into them? i've lost months of work due to this can someone help? also i think the issue needs to be resolved for latter realeases of msg plus.

please somebody help me....i'm willing to pay if someone can get me results, but won't pay till its proven it can be done or something....this is critical stuff i need =\

It is possible to decrypt them!  Unfortuantly I know both the people capable of doing so and they most certainly wont.  The idea of encrypting them is so people can't read them.  If you can't remember the password it's unfortuante but the files are now useless.   Sorry  :(  But why would you have essential work in your log files anyways ?

well talking to work mates and stuff they send me information like URL's to sites, ip addresses, code snipperts and such like and i use my logs so i can refer back to something if i need it rather than copying it into notepad or something and creating millions of different files. i havn't forgoten the password they just won't open with it =\
