Its going to be hard, generally those programs use "brute force hacking" or whatever you would like to call it. It can be used in two ways. The first one uses a dictionary (a huge .txt file with words) and the app tries every single word as a password. The second one uses every letter-number conbination as a password (ex. 0001, 0002, ..., A001, Z982, ADTW).

Generally if you have a fast computer this could take days or weeks depending on the length of the password. Some newer compression programs only allow to enter a determinate number of wrong passwords at a time to prevent the use of this methods

BTW this metods im mentioning are pretty old and maybe there are some other ways to do it.



that is correct

or else you want to contact dan brown to get their computer from "deception point" !
