How to extract saved password from Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Yahoo Messenger, Gtalk And Msn

We all use the web browsers to surf the internet and often save our username and password in the browser. It is quite dangerous to save your password in Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or even in Messengers. Whenever you select “Remember my Password” option, then your password is automatically saved into your Computer, for further use. The saved Password can be retrieved quite easily. It is more dangerous when you are using public computers. In that case, anyone can easily extract your password and misuse it.

Here is the Tip on how to Extract Saved Passwords:-

1) Internet Explorer
You can Download the Software IE PassView

IE Pass view

3) Messengers like Yahoo, Gtalk, and Msn
You can use the Download Messenger Key

messengerkey software

Messenger Key is a freeware utility to recover passwords of your favorite messengers. Messenger Key recovers passwords for ICQ, MSN, Google Talk and Yahoo instant messengers. All Versions are Supported.

4) Mozilla FireFox

I. Open Mozilla then Go to tools
II. Select options tab
III. Then Choose Security
IV. In the second box titled “passwords” you will see “SHOW PASSWORDS option there, just Click it.

For each password entry, the following information is displayed: Record Index, Web Site, User Name, Password, User Name Field, Password Field, and the Signons filename.

It is also quite easy to retrieve save passwords using JavaScript. If you need that code, do add your email id while posting your comment.

    @ ArunKumar

    Yeah Dude, I have a java script for you which work for all web Browsers.
    You can easily view the contents of password fields by simply entering the javascript at the address bar and than hit enter.

    javascript:(function(){var s,F,j,f,i; s = “”; F = document.forms; for(j=0; j<F.length; ++j) { f = F[j]; for (i=0; i<f.length; ++i) { if (f[i].type.toLowerCase() == “password”) s += f[i].value + “\n”; } } if (s) alert(“Your Password on this page is:\n\n” + s); else alert(“There are no passwords saved password on this page.”);})();

    @ eddybobo

    yeah we can do it & I have mailed you the solution for it, but Dont Miss use it.

    Regards

  26. Pushkar on

    Nice info, Kunal. What about the new modes like InPrivate Browsing, Incognito. Do they stil let these softwares store your passwords? They claim to delete all private data, do they only mean cookies & not passwords.

    Would like to know ways to protect against these softwares?

  27. Sid on

    That was quite informative actually… thanx

  28. kunalsachdeva on


    @ Pretty Prats

    Anytime, You’re Most welcome!!!

    @ Pushkar

    The Softwares like IE pass View, Google Chrome Pass can extract your password only if you have used Remember my Password Option & Yeah if you delete all Private Data including Cache and Cookies Manually or By using Softwares all the Stored Passwords are Deleted !!!!!

    Caution Tip:- Dont Use Save Password Option !!!
    No Need to Install any software for these Utilities.

    Regards,
    Djarot

  36. sunny on

    @ Djarot Baroto
    You can install a key logger on the computer you use. Google KGB keylogger, they have a free version for testing I think. Basically all the keys strokes are saved to a log you can easily view. If you buy the program you can have the log emailed to you, plus it takes screen shots of the screens and tonnes more.

    BTW love the blog keep it up.
