"Doesn't work well-don't bother"
Version: Advanced Archive Password Recovery 4
Cons
As downloaded in shareware format this program doesn't recover anything. No one uses a three character password so it's useless.
It also seems to slow down the PC after install and even after uninstall. I suspect that the uninstall is not clean and utilities need to be run to get the remnants out.

"ALLOT of LIMITATIONS.."
Version: Advanced Archive Password Recovery 4
Pros
Easy & initiative interface.
Cons
RARs with more than 4 characters of password takes AGES..
& doesn't support multi-part.. which is a killer for the fact it's priced at 49$!

"A quick scam !"
Version: Advanced Archive Password Recovery 2.2
Summary
It only perform 3 passwords per second on my 1 Giga-Hz computer. For this speed I don't think it ever going to find it. After I calculated all the possibility of a 49 keys on the keyboard plus accounting for the uppercase and a space bar, it would take my computer at least 700 thousand years if my password is just only 8 character long (yes, seven hundred thousand years). So if you happen to own a 100 GigaHz computer (maybe in 2010) it would take you only 7 thousand years.

"very good but not excellent"
Version: Advanced Archive Password Recovery 2.2
Summary
I give this very good but not excellent because:
1. It does 6million tries a second WOW !!!! thats GREAT !!!! on my dual pentium III 1000 ghz
2. It does not support dual processors so I have to manually do calculations (which sux) and split the work by running two copies of this software and manually selecting a processor for it.
