2000-10-05 Thread Richard Hayes

Dear Sluggers,

Someone password protected a Winzip file and I need to unzip it.

Can anyone point me at any tools / faqs / info on how to crack it.

regards,

Richard Hayes

Do a search for "fast zip crack".  You'll find lots of stuff.  Basically
though, if they've used a good password (7+ characters and not a real word)
then you're pretty much out of luck.
