Where are passwords stored?

Ok I have one software program on my computer that I used autosave for the password and I cannot for the life of me remember what it is.

Now that I have the new computer, I need to activate this program, Trillian Pro, and what I think it could be continually comes back as wrong

Unfortunately since I got the program, my email is changed so I can't even get it resent to me via email. Any way of figuring out what the password is?

Will the cookie file for Trillian contain it or is it someplace on my harddrive?

Merci.

Are you running Windows? (Sensitive Mac users might want to move to the next post...)

If so, it very well could be stored encrypted within the registry.

I never did find it - after 20 tries at my password I finally figured it out.

No clue where it was stored - sigh! damn encryption.
