Also, here's a tool which allows you to decrypt and display your password, which is stored behind the asterisks. It is the first tool of its kind that works automatically on Web pages, Windows 9x/NT and Windows 2000/XP systems.
Windows systems allow a convenient storage of frequently used passwords, such as the password inside Outlook Express. However, since you no longer have to type in the saved passwords manually, it's all too easy to forget them! What are you to do when you need to know one of the saved passwords? The password is staring right at you, but is hiding behind a row of "*****" asterisks. This nifty utility allows you to reclaim your password.
Just download and activate the Actmon password utility, drag the mouse cursor onto the password field and your password is revealed instantly. But remember that if you can do this, so can others, so it probably makes sense to only activate the software as and when you need it, rather than have it loaded all the time.
