access an MS Word password protected doc

Hello all!

I was browsing some of my old cds this weekend and I found an MS Word doc (very old indeed since it is in windows). I tried to open it but it was protected by a passwod. Since there is no way to remember the password I was wondering is there any way to access this file from my fedora core 2 distro?

thanx in advance

I have a box with XP here so it would be great if you could point me to a direction where I can open the doc even in windows

Tnax again
