I know how frustrating it is when you download a large file from the net to find out that it is locked with
a password, which you dont have. Cracking the password with softwares like Advanced password recovery
is out of the question bcoz it takes nearly 3 days to guess a 8 character long password. And noone can spend that
kinda time.
Today I am gonnal post a method to find out passwords for archive files which you downloaded from file sharers like -
Rapidshare, Megaupload .........

It is pretty easy, fast and doesnt require you to use any software other than a Browser.

What you need -
1. A browser (preferably Mozilla FireFox)
2. The file for which you are searching the password must be popular.
How to do it -

Lets assume that one wants to find password for this file -
http://rapidshare.de/files/5968004/Dead.To.Rights.2-RELOADED.part01.rar.html

In the Google Search toolbar in FireFox copy the name of the file, in this case - Dead.To.Rights.2-RELOADED.part01.rar

Or you can manually go to www.google.com and search in the default search box.

By checkin the Actual Url one can see that /forum/index.php?showtopic=8927&view=findpost&p=119588
is a link to a topic in a forum, and hence by clicking on the link, we are taken to a forum page.

The forum is in some other language, but it doesnt matter. On scrolling down the page one can see
the links to the file for which we need the password. And most probably the password will posted at the end
of the link list, like this -

f it is not posted then you can try the other links or search in other search engines or you can even add " " to the keyword and then search.

Hope this small guide was helpful to you. Now you no longer need to ask others for the password to files.
