hi guys,

If it's a website, then no way... the only possibility would be to ask the site admin to reset your password.

Unless the password is somewhere on the PC, some kind of remembered passwords or something...

when u first log into the program your username and password is automatically remembered. so ulnless its on a cookie somewere on the pc or something like that? its not a site though its a program

I would rather not install a casino app on my PC... and it's hard to know if it can be found without taking a look. If you trust me, RAR up the folder, upload it somewhere, and send me a PM. Telling you right now though, low chances.

Mazuki or someone else might be better than me at finding the password, though.

Just pray the software has crappy security and stores the password somewhere as ASCII, and doesn't hash it and store the hash. If it does the latter, the only solution would be to find the hash and then make a 'crack' that makes the program, instead of hashing the password you try and comparing it against its stored hash, compares the stored hash against itself. If that makes any sense. And for that, Mazuki would be the one to ask, I am but a novice cracker.

If your username etc are saved, as far as i know these apps open a browser window to run.

What browser do you use????

if the password shows on the screen something like ********** , there are programs that reveal what the asterisks hide.
googling "show password" reveals a horde of results, and i do not doubt that one of them would work. I cannot make any suggestions, since I havent used one in a while.

PM me Ch0pp3r :)

I'm currently having a similar problem. I'm running Firefox and want to save my online passwords. It asks me for the master password, but i don't remember what it was, or if i even set one in the first place!

There are tools in here to do what you are after.

In particular, you can use "SnadBoy's Revelation" to uncover a password that displays as ********, very simple and straight forward to use.
