Are you talking about a website? or the passwords on your own computer, or business computer. I know you can download password cracking software from the internet. I've had reason to use such software at work, and it blasted through the vaunted security of our desktop support contractor like a hot knife through butter.

Try Nir Sofer's Protected Storage PassView (v1.62) ; its free, safe, and reliable.

This will show passwords and autocomplete information stored for the currently logged on user. Most antivirus and antispyware programs will complain about it, since it does compromise security. I suggest you download it, use it, save its report to a floppy or something (and fer chrissakes, keep track of that!), then delete the application - otherwise, anyone who stumbles across the app will be able to pull up stored passwords and auto-complete info for any user account they can log on to - something you'd prolly prefer not to happen.
