Freeware password revealer.

Snadboy's Revelation (v2.0) can be a really handy program to have. This program will uncover passwords hidden behind asterisks and allow you to recover those passwords which are saved, but you just can't remember.

The program is older, but nevertheless still useful. Using Snadboy's Revelation is quite easy and involves dragging the program's cursor over a text field and tada, the password hidden behind those pesky asterisks will become visible.

Conveniently, you can also copy the password that you've just recovered to your computer's clipboard.

When we tried out this program, it was able to reveal passwords from Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail, Opera and Chrome. Unfortunately, it wasn't able to reveal any passwords in Firefox so you might have to look elsewhere if that's what you're after.
