I found an old wallet.dat file which I believe to contain between 2-4 btc from a couple of years ago. lost password. I cant remember for the life of me what the pw is. can anyone help?


If you had a reasonable strong password and remember nothing about it, your chances are almost 0.
If you however have some idea what the password might look like you might get the wallet unlocked with some tools.

For more info see this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.0

It is discussed there and there are links to scripts and tools that might help you.
