I hate people who put passwords on files then dont tell you how or where to get password to open it. What a waste of time downloading file for nothing.

The p/w is usually in the .nfo file.

sometimes the rar files come without an nfo file.

If you get such a file delete it..often that's done to get you to visit their websites... for the password.. ..shame about the wasted bandwidth...

Unless it's a REALLY easy password, you could brute force it till the cows come home and not crack it.

:O That no more is a bit over the top..not all ( hardly any) are actually password protected..and for many torrent sites, password protection is often forbidden. It's just very frustrating if you find out only after downloading larger files and it's a waste of course. :dry:

Here's what I do, for every file I download I also create an info text file that I put (among other things) the address of the place I found the file at and the link to get it. that way if I find out later it needs a pass and none was included, I can use the link to get back to where I got it from and look to see if I missed something or find others have posted "hey! you idiot where's the password" and usually if they have it, it will be there. Better late than never.

Searching the exact file name of one of the files can work as well, I don't know how many times I downloaded files someone leeched, forgot where they got it, and can't come up with the pass. I just google neroxxxx(xxxxxx.com).part1.rar or what ever the name is and look for links. Alot of times you end up back where the idiot posted with no pass and others you find the original post with the pass and you can go back and post it for everyone and be the hero.

it isn't a winrar (.rar) files. It's a stupid .zip file. Brute force that shit.
