Well it is little bit tricky. To cut the long story short. Guy left the company and he pretty much left everything. Lets just say he was in hurry. I don't know reason. However he left few Excel spreadsheets password protected.
I would like to open them.

Hi,

The forum rules don't encourage us to directly help circumvent security on systems/networks etc. However, there are free applications out there (a Google search perhaps) that may be able to help you : I have seen very mixed results so test carefully.

If you are lucky, there might be soemthing in this list, but I can't guarantee that:

Good luck,

OK
I understand. I have already tried few of them but they are rather slow.
I will search again with more effort.
Thanks mate.
