Windows allows storing your frequently used passwords, such as the passwords in Outlook Express email or for a FTP connection. But since you no longer enter the saved password manually, you tend to forget them. The password is staring right at you, but is hiding behind a row of asterisks - ****. This feature is intended to protect your passwords; but sometimes this feature becomes more of a pain, rather than help.

Asterisks Password Recovery is a software that lets you uncover (figure out) the hidden passwords that are covered by the asterisks by simply moving the mouse cursor over the forgotten password field. It can recover passwords to such programs like Microsoft Outlook / Outlook Express, The BAT! and other e-mail clients, FTP clients like FlashFXP, CuteFTP etc. Recovers passwords in Internet Explorer.
