Most people save their passwords within products such as Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird.

Occassionally, you may need to re-enter your password, such as when you are enabling a Mobile Mail solution., and then you realise that you cannot remember it.

Unfortunately, the passwords were all hidden by asterisks and there is no way for you to transfer the passwords.

There is a utility available from NirSoft, called Asterix Logger.

Asterisk Logger is fabulous program from them that will reveal any password from a program that uses asterisks automatically.

This program has some nice features that make it better than any other password revealer:

• No need to press a button to reveal a password. Simply open the program or window that has the asterisks and the password will be revealed inside the password box itself!
• In the main window, Asterisk Logger will display more information about the revealed password such as the date and time the password was revealed, the name of the application, and the executable file .
• You can save the passwords to an HTML file or to a text file also.

The application is available from here .
