No, there isn't because that would make the password protection prety useless :p Unfortunately, if you don't know your password you're out of luck.

Did you enable chat logging in MSN Messnger's options page? If you did, maybe you can try to access it...But most probably you wont, cause it would be useless to encrypt one, but forget protection for the other one :D...

Having misplaced my password, I can't access the 'preferences screen'. I am resigned to losing all my chat logs, but how do I reset the password? Do I need to uninstall and then reinstall.. ? Thanks (Y)

If you are unfamiliar with regedit just uninstall with the option ticked to remove all settings and reinstall.
