Name - F-DCRYPT
Download URL - fdc-104.zip Developer - FRISK Software International OS - DOS/ Windows File Size - 18.8 KB Supported Software Versions or File Systems - Word versions 6.0-7.0a and Excel versions 5.0-7.0. Developer Provided Description - "F-DCRYPT is a program for recovering the password and decrypting documents produced by Microsoft Word versions 6.0-7.0a and Microsoft Excel versions 5.0-7.0. Several macro viruses encrypt the documents of the user as part of their destructive payload. Our macro virus scanner, F-MACROW, versions 1.06 and above can scan encrypted documents, locate the macro viruses inside (if there are any) and even disinfect them. However, it leaves the encryption in place - because there is no reliable way of determining whether the document has been encrypted by the user or by the virus. If it turns out that the encryption of the document has been done by the virus and is, therefore, unwanted, the user can use this F-DCRYPT utility to display the password and even decrypt the documents." Comment - Old versions of Word and Excel only.

Name - DWSCAN Screenshot Not Available Download URL - DWSCAN.zip Developer - D.Weiser OS - Windows File Size - 42 KB Supported Software Versions or File Systems - Excel 5.0 Developer Provided Description - "Password scanner for Ms Excel 5.0." Comment - Written in 1997. I poorly translated the German readme's with Google. Please note: Honestly the commercial software or services is probably the route you will have to take to recover your Word or Excel password. The GuaWord program will work but could take something like 25 days. The Google Adsense Ads displayed on the pages should lead you to the standard commercial software and services available for the problem you are having. You can also try the commercial links page on this site which is here and in the navigation structure on the left. For software always be sure to try the demos first to see if the program works before buying. Also the difference in prices for software that does the same thing, for instance recovering PowerPoint Presentations, can be a large price range like in this case $50 - 299. If possible, try several software solutions before buying. For services, be sure there is a no data, no fee guarantee, and a recovered file preview available.
