Russian software firm Intelore has developed a
password recovery program for OpenOffice.org that can recover encrypted documents even when the password used for the original encryption has been lost. In addition to recovering passwords, the program can be used to remove various types of document protection, such as document ReadOnly protection, revision marking protection, protection of sections in OpenOffice Writer, protection of cells in OpenOffice Writer tables, automatic protection of indexes and tables, and OpenOffice Calc document protection. A noncommercial license costs $79, while the full version will set you back $129. A free but limited evaluation version is available to try the program out.
