Step-by-Step Guide
Password Spectator is easy to use:
A. Preparation:
-
Open the application window that contains the
password you want to read (this must be a password that is hidden
behind the "*******" asterisks).
-
If you want to recover WEB passwords, make sure
that you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 (or better)
to display the web page with the hidden password(s).
-
Start the "Password Spectator"
tool.
B. Password Spectator :
-
Press and hold Ctrl key.
-
Move cursor to the password screen and press left
mouse button.
-
Passwords are displayed in a small pop-up window.
Limitations: This utility works well with most password screens
you will encounter on a MS Windows system, such as the password
fields on the ISP dial-up dialog, within CuteFTP or Outlook Express.
However, it does not work with applications that do not actually
store the password "behind" the asterisks e.g. the Windows NT User
Manager. The standard password recovery works on Win 95, 98, ME,
Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP (all Editions). The WEB
password recovery is designed for use with Microsoft Internet Explorer
5.0 (or better) and works on all Windows platforms.
