    Does anyone have any suggestions on a program that can strip off or reset a password for a Zip File?

    Thank you in advance. No, I'm not hacking anyone. :)

    Unfortunately, there is no way to remove a password from any zipped file regardless of the tool used to compress it: WinZIP, WinRar, etc... There are some tools that will try to crack the password by using numerous methods such as dictionary scans, sequential characters, random characters, etc... You might get lucky, but these are essentially password guessing programs and take days or even weeks to get the password right, if it ever does... I know, not much help or encouraging news..... sorry.
