cached passwords

Hunts through the victim's computer looking for cached passwords. The most common passwords found will be from RAS, the Windows component used to dialup the Internet. If the victim uses a VPN connection to connect to work, then these will often be found.

Note that some really smart trojans search the disk for PGP keys as well. These can sometimes be cracked if the victim has protected them with weak passwords.
