Re: revelation, snitch, openPass...

Kind of . Windows has very insecure message passing. One "window" can tell another window to do stuff. Without requiring authorization, even. Apparently, X is much better about this kind of thing.

I don't know about the internals, which would be entirely MS specific. I, too, would be interested in source code.

This can be used, oftentimes, to find the wireless access key, which is starred out. Some admin's don't want their users to know it, and seem to think that that stars are secure.

An alternative way to do this would be to walk through a processes memory space, and maybe pass the result to `strings`. You have to own the process or be root though. "The Coroners Toolkit" for Linux can do this pretty well.
