there is no simple way to get the password, the only way is bruteforcing.. the password is not stored anywhere in the file (if it was it wouldn't be much of a security option would it?).. if the password is correct the crc of the file will match the recorded crc.. if not, then it wont match and winrar will bitch about you entering the wrong password..

like joe says the only real option is to get a rar password cracker and leave it bruteforcing the file(s).. if you know some of the characters you can supply them to speed up the process.. and if you have an nvidia based video card, of the 9xxx series (or higher).. (i think its 9xxx, perhaps 8xxx also work) you can use the cuda option to use the gpu to break the password (which usually is considerably faster than using the cpu)...

oh and @search24sc, i got a damned good felling you're a bot, and i already edited your post to remove your shameless advertising (which is forbidden).. so two things are going to happen..

1. you reply to this thread stating you are not a bot, will read the rules and be good in future....

-or-

2. you don't reply in a reasonable time (i give you ~2 days), i assume you are therefore a bot and kick you out of the forum..

ho ho ho, merry christmas
