There is a program called getpass that can decrypt the router password.
However this requires that you can get into enable mode to retrieve the
encrypted password.

  Does anyone have any way to do Password recovery on a Cisco router
without having to reboot a Cisco 3600 series? I have local access and
telnet access. Thanks!
