It *should* be exceptionally difficult to reverse engineer the
password. After all, that's the whole point of encrypting the file.
Saying that, some encryption methods are flawed (or just not very good
to begin with - old passworded Zip files for example were trivial to
circumvent).

What is the file encrypted with? Is it a specific file format (7z,
rar, zip, gpg, pgp, etc.)?
