Sam still believes saving the password in a file is still the best way to remember it and keep it secured, time to prove him wrong once again. As the description says the password is in the same directory(folder) as we are.
This time Network Security Sam has saved the unencrypted level7 password in an obscurely named file saved in this very directory.
The second line of the description tell us about one another news that came from Sam, about setting up an UNIX cal command script and with that we are provided with the script even.

Sam has got a lot wiser, he understood that a password if encrypted is a lot difficult to crack. But like every other time he made a mistake. He used such an encryption system that is publicly available and is not good enough. Well, the rest of the hack is a lot easier as we have already got the encrypted password ‘a6c;459?‘.

This time Sam hardcoded the password into the script. However, the password is long and complex, and Sam is often forgetful. So he wrote a script that would email his password to him automatically in case he forgot.
Now, as we see, Sam is quite forgetful, and he forgets his password all the time, so he wrote some script that would mail him the password. Lets begin with checking the source code as we always do.

This level takes us little more deeper into HTML. Lessons learnt in previous levels should be remembered they can be useful any time.
This time Network Security Sam remembered to upload the password file, but there were deeper problems than that.
This time the password file is there, but with deeper problems. Lets just follow the simple steps we had learn in level 1 i.e. check out the source code.
