Looking for a password software

I've lost one of my passwords. I know the letters and numbers that would be in it, but i dont remember the combinations of it.

Is there a software that would check the username (known) with all the possible combinations of the letters and numbers that I give it?

Thanks

 

Hi there just do a google search under the words ( password software ) and you will see plenty of options there to chose from.

 

that search brings a lot of softwares that i dont need. When I posted this thread i was hoping to get someone's help that already knows about such a software.

Thanks for the suggestion though

 

What's it a password for? If it's for a site your best bet is emailing the admin or someone involved.

If it's for an operating system like Windows there are ways around it.

If it's for a program it's different.

 

thanks for the inputs. Its for a IM software I use.

Do you know a software that does what I was looking for?

 

Sounds like you are wanting to do something not so legal, but if you truly have lost your password to an instant messenger, why not just click forgot password and verify it is your account and get it back?

 

seriously, is it so hard to not answer if you dont know the answer of the question?

 

Are you referring to me? I obviously know the answer, but I wouldn't help someone do something illegal. As for an answer that you may not like, you can always write a simple php script to take the letter and numbers and give you multiple combinations. That is really not that difficult. But it sounds like you are wanting to brute force someone's password. So I asked why can you not get it back by clicking I forgot my password? All of the major messengers have that option.

 

go back to your epic forum kiddo

 

It's a legitimate question from someone who was offering sound advice. I too wonder why you don't simply request your password again. Being rude will get you nowhere.
