O.P. Huh?  Password on Chat Logs
I encrypt my chatlogs with a password but now I forgot it. Is they're anyway to reset the password so I can view them again?

No, sorry. All you can do is delete the logs and re-install msgplus. Then I would recomend writing down the password so you can remember it. :)

Wth marrissa. If it had the right pass it would let them view it. Thats common sense...:dodgy:....Umm yes you can delete the chat logs one by one, or just delete the My Chat Logs folder and it will remake one with the new chat logs...

Thats not this user. This user said he forgot his password. He did not say that his password was not being accepted, but rather said that he forgot it. Therefore my suggestion will work :), and it is the only thing he basicaly can do.

When (s)he said he forgot it it could mean that he typed in the wrong one at first so i guess the quote i had on anibus was put there well.  but who cares. my mistake (i can admit it:o) but one word of advice...you should really stop thinking for other people...oh, and thanks for the "nicest person in the forum" thing;) (L)!
