Hi kalli, As Jerermy pointed out, the library used in TW is designed to use "strong" encryption. ... So it depends on the value of the content, that you "forgot" :) if it makes sense to "crack" it. - Since you did the password, you probably know, how many characters you used. Even a range may be of advantage. - You also should know what type of characters you used. eg: a..z, 0..9. Wich would be a weak password. If you used (as recomended) "special chars" eg: $_-öä... and upper lower case combinations. It would be harder. - If your password is short, it would be easier to find it with a "brute force attack" ... So you probably can't attack the encryption mechanism, but the password ;) by simply throwing computing power at it. .. but if your password is "strong and long" it's probably not worth it, because it takes too much time. have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
