Do you know how to?
The WinXP might be a little bit protected from finding it because, the father of my friend doesn't want her to use it on here Itouch. How can we get the Wireless key from the WinXP pc, which is connected to the wireless network we want the key from?!?

Can I find it somewhere in the registry?
Or in some file located somewhere on the pc?
Thank you!

You can usually find it when you login to your router. I didn't this like 20 minutes ago. :p

To login to your router, enter your IP into the address bar and login if it asks you to (a lot of routers have admin as the user and admin as the pass).

This works for Windows 7, so I don't know if it's the same for XP. To get the IP, run ipconfig from the command line. Mines called Default Gateway and its 192.168.2.1 (yours should be similar).

My WEP key was under the Home Network section when I logged into my router and it was labeled as 128-bit key (or something similar).

I am not totally stupid xD.
Her father works in a networking company and there are more servers and wireless networks in their house than Computer^2 so yeah :p.
So I am sure the router user pass is not admin admin :p.
