Notes Password Recovery

The Notes Password Recovery utility allows you to recover a forgotten password from a Lotus Notes ID file. You have a choice of using either: Dictionary Search Method - which attempts words contained in a dictionary file (also called a word list) Brute Force Search Method - which attempts every combination of letters and characters that you choose. Guess Password Method - which allows you to enter what you think the password could be.
