How do I open MS Word document with restricted permissions?

I have a word doc on another hard drive(D:) with password protection.
I had to reinstall windows on the C: drive. Since then I cannot open the
word doc on my D: drive. I have a message "Word can not open the document:
user does not have acces privileges (D:\...\Bank details.doc".
If anyone can help me on this I will appreciate so much!

It sounds like it was restricted using IRM (Information Rights
Management)? If that's the case, what server did you use to set the
restrictions? Passport?

You might try installing the same IRM service you used to restrict
permission to the document. Try creating a blank document and clicking
the Permission command and following the instructions to install the
service.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.

Hi!

Thanks for the help.
Unfortunately it was not the IRM.
There is something with Security on the drive.
I can't take over the special permission, however I could take over
everything else like ownership,permissions etc.
Is there any program what can remove this special permissions or to give me
the right to chage them.
I know the password, I just don't have a chance to type it in.

Regards,

Zorro
