Default Fetch Windows Live Messenger Stored Password

Please Login to Remove!

A friend forgot her Hotmail account's password but has it saved in Windows Live Messenger on her BB.

I'm assuming WLM for BB stores the password in plain text somewhere on the device, but I can't seem to find where.

Any hints or ideas?

It's not available in plain text mode so she should either try to go thru Hotmails password recovery if they have one or try to remember the password.
It's all about security.

It is NOT available on the BlackBerry. It's stored in a secure location and to crack it you'd be breaking some unbelievable encryption. RIM won't even tell you what encryption they're using, so cracking it will be "problematic".
