Need password for encrypted RAR or ZIP archive
1773 comments. Current rating: (253 votes). Leave comments and/ or rate it.
Question: I downloaded an archive from the edonkey filesharing platform and was going to unpack it. It turns out that the archive is protected by a password (encrypted). How can I find the password?
Answer: For RAR archives there is a shareware tool (http://www.rarpasswordcracker.com/) that can try a brute force or a dictionary attack. The brute force attack for passwords of more than 5 characters takes pretty long already, the dictionary attack is more promising. The shareware version only searches passwords up to a length of 4 characters, I found.
If the file came from the ed2k platform (edonkey), then you may want to look for comments on the file. Unfortunately you cannot view comments once the file is completed, so you'll have to move the archive out of the shared folder, then search for the file again and start the download again. Wait a little, and you can - hopefully - view comments on it. Possibly one of the comments will indicate the password.
If there are no such comments, then take a good look at the file name. It is common that the file name contains a [..] part. The term in [] may just be the password.
Examples:
super_software_[secret9].rar
super_software_[pass_secret9].zip
The password would be 'secret9' here.
Update:
As someone posted in the comments section, if you downloaded an encrypted file from the edonkey network that may have been released by the 'Goldesel' crew, then try this password: "www.goldesel.6x.to". For some reason the Goldesel people felt to advertise their web site that way.

'If no promo copies were sent out, how was Rolling Stone able to review it?'
Because the people at Rolling Stone are afforded the good fortune of being able to call up Reprise Records and asking for a copy. Im willing to bet that the copy they reviewed was not an advance promo copy, but the retail version we'll all be buying.
Promo copies are generally sent out to radio stations/music retailers, as give-aways or for employees. Warner/Reprise know all too well how much money this record will make them, and you can be damned sure that theyre doing everything in their power to make sure no-one leaks it before it streets.

Those My Chemical Romance 'The Black Parade' are not real copies. Each song is just 'Welcome To The Black Parade' just that they changed the size and name. So stop asking for it. Try Friday or the weekend for the download. Hot Topic are having listening parties at 7 P.M at all their stores. Go and check it out there, plus, im sure one of them will get a copy and leak it online. So you'll most likelly be able for the download this weekend. That or be patient and wait, jeez, he album comes out Monday/ Tuesday (Monday for those that pre-ordered it through their site an such).
