download this software & see your password..

"Windows is great at remembering many of your passwords, eg. the password of your dial-up connection. Unfortunately, this is also a problem - since you seldom enter the passsword it tends to be forgotten. What do you do when you need to know one of the saved passwords? The password is staring right at you, but is hiding behind a row of asterisks. Use Revelation to see what's hiding behind the asterisks."

You will need your router password to reset your ISP password. This is different from your ISP acount’s password. On most routers, the default username / password combination is admin/admin or admin/1234 . If you have changed your router password and forgot it too, then it can't help you.

This procedure i saw on net i don't remeber site name but i store this steps in Pc. Try this it will help you.
  • Run HyperTerminal by Start > Programs > Accesories> Communications > HyperTerminal.
  • Enter any name for the Connection. Click on OK.
  • In the Connect Using combo box, select TCP/IP (WinSock) and enter 192.168.1.1 as Host address. (192.168.1.1 is usually your router’s address ). If you have customized your router’s ip address then enter the customized address. The Port Number 23 is fine, no need to change it. Click on Connect.
  • You will get a login prompt. Enter your router username and password here. If all goes allright you will get a prompt saying “Login Successful”.
  • Now on the console, type this:
  • console enable {Press Enter}
  • You’ll get a prompt like this:
  • Quantum>
  • Now on the prompt, type this:
  • Quantum> fm {Press Enter}
  • The prompt will change to Quantum fm>.
  • Now in HyperTerminal, click on Transfer > Capture Text. Enter a location to save the settings file. For example My Documents\mysettings.txt .
  • Click on Start. You will be back to the router prompt.
  • Now type this:
  • Quantum fm> cat im.conf {Press Enter}
  • This is quite a big file and it will take a while to list. Just wait until the listing is complete and you get back to the prompt.
  • Click on Transfer > Capture Text > Stop.
  • Now the tough part is over.
  • Type these commands on the console to quit telnet:
  • Quantum fm>home {Press Enter}
  • Quantum>exit {Press Enter}
  • >user logout {Press Enter}
  • Now you can quit HyperTerminal.
Now open the file we saved in Notepad and press Ctrl F.
Enter weLogin in the string to find.
And here you can see your ISP login details in clear text.
