Installing MessenPass
MessenPass can be used without any installation process, simply by running the executable file (mspass.exe) from the zip file.
If you want to install MessenPass with automatic creation of program group icons and uninstall support, download and run the self-install executable file.
Using MessenPass
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.
Command-Line Options
You can also save the passwords of your Instant Messenger applications without displaying any user interface, by using the following command-line options: /stext Save all instant messenger passwords into a regular text file.
/stab Save all instant messenger passwords into a tab-delimited text file.
/stabular Save all instant messenger passwords into a tabular text file.
/shtml Save all instant messenger passwords into HTML file.
/sverhtml Save all instant messenger passwords into HTML file. (vertical)
