Snadboy's Revelation is an unfortunately named application that makes recovering long forgotten passwords a snap. Sometimes. All you have to do is run the application and drag and drop a little target button over to an asterisked-out password. SnadBoy's Revelation will show what's hidden beneath those big black circles and let you copy the text to a clipboard.
Unfortunately, this won't work with all passwords. A lot of newer programs hide your passwords somewhere else, so those asterisks are really just place holders. For example, SnadBoy's revelation won't help you recover any website passwords stored in Firefox or Internet Explorer. But the application is still more than worth its price, considering it's free.
