Do you have any idea how long your typical passwords are, if you would use common words, or if you'd include uppercase letters or numbers. I found one program that works but it is really slow. It could do seven characters (all lowercase) in about a day. There might be something better. I'll look tomorrow.

I have all the time in the world. :) It's just really important to me that I can (eventually) get back into these. Usually my passwords consist of 2 or 3 common words with some uppercase/numbers in them somewhere. (for example, a good one I used to use: knot4You I loved that one.) The chances of it being under 7 characters is fairly slim, but not impossible.

Any help you could give me would be very very very much appreciated.

I appreciate the offer, but I was able to get it de-coded with the link suns31 gave me below:

I found 2 websites but you might have to pay money
