AsteRisks

Unfortunately for Internet Explorer/Windows users, there is a pretty big hole in the security of Windows when it comes to passwords hidden behind asterisks (***). This program is a simple usage one which displays hidden Windows and IE passwords when you hover the magnifying glass above a password field, a password hidden behind stars or dots.

You can also run this program to clear your cache and history of passwords saved on your system.

This program is unfortunately no longer available.
