Well, it won't stop you from trying to brute-force guess your password until you get it right. Of course, depending on what you do remember about your passphrase, how long it is, how strong it is, and what tools you use, it could take anywhere from a few minutes to a few millenia. Other than that, nothing. There are no back doors, no type of "magic" to get your data back to its original form, nothing. Would you really want to use a program that would allow for such capabilities, though? After all, no software is going to be perfect and definitively know who wants to recover that data.

Microsoft doesn't feel it's necessary to follow web standards, likely because they want to impose their own proprietary standards. Thankfully, they have not had much success (we have the late Netscape to thank for this). Robert J. Hansen wrote: > I try not to join ... IE-bashing ...
