This is the software publisher's description.

Password recovery tool that reveals the passwords of the following instant messenger applications: MSN Messenger, Windows Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, ICQ Lite, AOL Instant Messenger, Trillian, Miranda, GAIM/Pidgin, MySpace IM.

MessenPass can only be used to recover the passwords for the current logged-on user on your local computer, and it only works if you chose to remember/store your password in one of the above programs. You cannot use this utility for grabbing the passwords of other users.

When you run MessenPass, it automatically detects the Instant Messenger applications installed on your computer, decrypts the passwords they store, and displays all user name/password pairs that it found in the main window of MessenPass. If from some reason, MessenPass fails to locate the installed Instant Messenger application, you can try to manually select the right folder of your IM application by using 'Select Folders' option (from the File menu).

On the main window of MessenPass, you can select one or more password items, and then copy them to the clipboard in tab-delimited format (you can paste this format into Excel or Open-Office Spreadsheet), or save them into text/html files.
