How to find Facebook passwords from Social.im

Monday, July 7th, 2008

This post is about:

  • Decrypt social.im password (Facebook password decrypter)
  • Decode social.im passwords (Facebook password decoder)
  • Crack social . im passwords (Facebook password cracker)
  • Recover social.im password (Facebook password recovery)
  • Find social.im Messenger passwords (Facebook Mpassword finder)
  • Facebook password ripper (rip social.im passwords)
  • Facebook password hacker (hack social.im password)
  • Facebook password stealer (steal social.im password)

Facebook IM team has released their version of IM client some time early this year. Unofficial sources say that as much as up to 20% of on-line Facebook users are also logged into social.im (although I doubt the share is more than 10% since the IM is still in the beta stages).

For those of us that ever wanted to recover forgotten Facebook password that is saved in the browser and social.im client, there is bad news though -

  •  The browser is not likely to keep the saved password. Instead the cookie is saved on the system that tells Facebook that user does not want the password to be entered each time.
    There is no way to recover the password from that session cookie.
  • Some IMs store the saved password locally in some sort of encrypted or clear-text form. Just like with Yahoo Messenger, the social.im password is not stored locally. Social.im sends the password to the server during the first login. The server returns a string called AuthKey which is then used by social.im to authenticate at consequent times.
    There is no way to find out which algorithm is used to translate the password into AuthKey (unless this info gets leaked from the social.im team or someone takes a guess that turns out to be correct).

The above reasons mean that there is no easy way of recovering Facebook password using the information saved on the local system.

Update: Looks like encrypted AuthKey is encoded using base64 format (to be able to store this authentication key in the ASCII form).

Video about recovering Windows Live Passwords

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

We’re making a series of How-To videos that will be demonstrating how our tools work and how you could use them to solve your problems.

The first one was deliberately called with a provocative name, Download Windows Live Password Stealer.

Windows Live Password Recovery is the tool that will instantly find, decrypt & recover Windows Live passwords that were saved by Windows Live Messenger on your PC under the current login. This decoder will recover multiple accounts and supports all known versions of Windows Live Messenger including Messenger Beta, MSN Messenger and Windows Messenger. Works also on Windows Vista. This cracker works when the “Remember My Password” checkbox is ticked in Windows Live Messenger and you are able to login automatically without entering your password. Even if you have un-installed Windows Live Messenger there is still a chance that your password is saved on your PC.
