Are the passwords in a particular format, or require specific criteria? I feel like I'm getting close to figuring this out! As said 7 zip can create BOTH .zip (which will have the PK header) and .7z (it's own compression format). The header for a .7z file is 377ABCAF271C : http://filesignatures.net/index.php?page=search&search=377ABCAF271C&mode=SIG A valid password will obviously unlock a protected file, no matter the compression/format used, and no there are no "specific" formats or criteria for passwords in any of them. jaclaz
