Need to brute force a password

Cuddlesworth

Hello,

Got a ancient program here in work which I now need to use again. Thing is none of us can remember what the password is to allow access to the outlook macro. It displays in a text box, on hitting enter it displays a error message and clears the field. No password time out. Anybody know a good program which would allow me to macro and brute force a password in this box. I'm pretty sure it was short.

I'd try a few of these first?

Also to mention that they are seen as viruses by your AV software. These are just false positives (mentions that on the site).

they would all be orientated towards a specific program. I seem to need to crack the password on a macro within a vba file in outlook.
