Firefox Password Recovery Master 1.1

Let me ask you a simple question: do you need to view login information (that would be usernames and passwords) stored by the Mozilla-developed, and may I say, incredibly good, Firefox browser? If you answered “yes” to that question, then you need to know there is an application out there that can do just that.

The application I am talking about is the Rixler Software-developed, the aptly named Firefox Password Recovery Master. Here is the functionality you can expect to get from this application:
- Displays usernames and passwords cached by the Firefox browser. As soon as you start the application, it automatically scans the info cached by the browser and presents you with a list of usernames and passwords.

- Decrypts passwords protected by the master password. In Firefox, in case you did not know this, you can set a master password; you will be prompted to enter it whenever Firefox needs to access your stored passwords. Setting a master password is recommended if you share your computer with someone else.
- You can password protect Firefox Password Recovery Master itself, so that only you can use the application.
- Multilingual passwords are supported
- You can copy the information Firefox Password Recovery Master retrieves to the clipboard.

Before you go get Firefox Password Recovery Master and put it to the test, take a look at the following technical details:
Download – the download weighs in at 1.1MB, which is good news. It means that even on a less than spectacular internet connection, it will take little time for the download to complete.
Support – at the time of writing this and according to the developer, Firefox Password Recovery Master provides support for:
- Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, and Windows 7
- Firefox v1.x, v2.x, v3.x
Limitations – the trial version does not display passwords longer than 4 characters. If the password is longer than 4 characters, you’ll only see the text “evaluation copy”.

Pros

• Lightweight download
• Simple user interface
• Decrypts passwords protected by the master password
• Works with Windows 7

Cons

• Free to try (4-character password limitation)
