Hey fellas,
I passworded some files in a .RAR archive and it seems I've typed the password wrong. The files were set to be deleted after archiving and I'd quite like to get access to them again.

Does anyone know of the best password unlockers for .RAR files, it was an alpha-numerical number without any coherent letter combinations, it will have been 8 characters long. I don't mind paying for it, as it might come in handy again, but free ones are always better :)

Cheers guys,

Downloaded some rar-ed pr0n did you? ;)

Just hit it with a brute force generator which will go through and try every combination from 00000000 to ZZZZZZZZ. Slow but will work :)
 
It will take a very long time to crack, possibly years depending on which version of winrar it was encrypted with.
 
It was encrypted with version 3.51 and I used the 'store' compression option. It's actually just a collection of some of my old writing. None of my pr0n was downloaded as an archive :D

So, any program suggestions?
