I have a toolbar (METoolBar) which I downloaded
from the web. One of the functions provided is a
password keeper.Unfortumately after entering only 1 password I lost the master password. Now I can neither access the lost password nor delete the master password (to start again from the beginning). I have tried uninstalling the program ing the program using the supplied uninstall program. and even used "system restore " to an earlier date but still get "password wrong" in response to any trial password. i would like to be able to use the toolbar as it seems very useful.Can anyone help please? I hope there is a solution which does not need reinstalling windows!

I am not sure about this program... but you can try searching for all of the *.pwl files... windows 95, 98 and ME holds passwords in these files...

The downside of doing this is that you will loose any passwords that normally would be entered by windows automatically (e.g. establishing connection to the internet).

Hope this helps..
