now I cant remember the password.

any one know a FAST and FREE way to get the data out??

brute force looks like it could take years, is there a faster way?

163895 2003-07-30 08:19:00 You could try the 30-day free trial version of Advanced ZIP Password Recovery (www.crackpassword.com). It does say that it has some limitations (trial vers), but not what. At 683 Kb only, it might be worth a shot. Jen C (20)
163896 2003-07-30 08:27:00 Or this one may be better .... Advanced Archive Password Recovery (ARCHPR) (www.crackpassword.com) from the same site. Same thing with the 30-day free trial version. Jen C (20)
