Most encrypted passwords are breakable using this program via Dictionary, Brute-Force and Cryptanalysis attacks. Note that the application relies on WinPcap to be able to scan and reveal info, so you need to make sure it's installed, but the general setup package offers to grab it for you to save some time and effort. It is capable to quickly and efficiently retrieve Outlook and network passwords and to display passwords underneath asterisks.
Ĭain & Abel is a nifty program that deals with recovering lost passwords using the most powerful and tough decryption algorithms.
The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. The term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies an innocuous (inoffensive) file as a virus. Important note: Some antivirus and antispyware programs flag Cain & Abel as being infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does not pose a threat to your system.
