Re: [Info] SIW 1.69 is available
What I find interesting (and I don't recall previous versions doing this), is that SIW found some email accounts long since deleted from outlook express, along with my old passwords I don't use anymore.
Wonder where the heck they are hiding?
I'll have to look around the registry a bit..or maybe the closet? Under the bed?
Good thing it's a "secret" huh?

said by bcool  :What am I to conclude if SIW's Secrets does successfully unveil a couple of passwords on my system? You can come to one of three conclusions-- SIW has clairvoyant abilities (possible, I suppose, yet unlikely), it's one helluva good guesser (I'm tossing that one out), or it's reading information stored deep down in some dark recess of your machine, like SAM.
My vote goes to the latter.
Albeit non critical passwords yet I wonder what I'm doing wrong if Secrets can figure them out?  
Some potentially informative info (that's the best kind!) here:

Just points out the importance of keeping malware off your system. |

Hey bcool!
Ya know the passwords on say, a website?
Usually ***********.
In SIW, click Tools, Eureka.
Drag the magnifying glass to those ***********... Look at what is displayed in the small Eureka window.

Re: [Info] SIW 1.69 is available
What with dishonest employees stealing customer credit info or lost credit info and inherent weaknesses because of stored sensitive data that can be easily mined by nifty utilities - why I think your suggestion is beginning to sound reasonable. Why even plug the damn computer in? It seems sometimes, you can't win for losing...
I think I do remember talk about hash this or hash that where secret things are stored deep down in my computer. Now how to clean it up? hmmmmm....
Thanks!

You're very welcome, but posting something like this once and awhile is the least I can do since you folks keep me abreast of what's going on so often!

said by Moody : The build number has changed from 630 to 631, (July 4, 2007) but I have no idea as to what changes took place in the program. Changes are posted at the blog site, and in the original post of this thread.
No special tool or Registry search required to see them.
Unless of course there have been now further changes not posted yet.
said by Lanik :The bug I reported earlier in this thread is fixed now and probably more. Thanks Gabriel. And I thank both of you for that info, as well as Mr. Topala for providing this program, quickly addressing issues, and stopping by this site occasionally to check in. Thank you!
I may even have to stop carping long enough to go ahead & install the update.
I get a thrilling, tingly sensation when I use the internal updater, anyway! |

I just hope you're happy with yourself.
