  You asked this question a few days ago and the answer is still the
same.

  If you din't back-up your creditials from your original account, YOU
CANNOT ACCESS THOSE FILES. Ther is no back door or crack available. It
doesn't matter where you're from or how many times you ask. The files are
lost to you. Your ISP can't help. Nobody can help you.

 Look at it this way. You have put your files in a secure box, then threw
the key into another box with over 10 BILLION similar keys. You will not
live long enough to find that key.

 EFS uses 128-bit key encryption. The fastest computer today wouldn't
find the proper key comination in less then a thousand years.
