Security on backedup DNN site

I've managed to crash my church's DNN web site while trying to upgrade, and took great satisfaction in the knowledge I had done a backup immediately before starting.  I was distressed to find out that the backup zip file was secured by a password which I don't remember putting into the system - it's been a while since my install, and things were done in a rush.  Anyway, I vaguely remember selecting 'secure' at some point, but don't remember adding a password.  If I did that, would there have been some default password added by the portal backup system?  Also, I'm trying to use a zip file password cracking program to recover the password - it's been running for several days doing a 'brute force' attack with no positive result at this time.  They also sell a more expensive program that claims it can guarantee to unlock any WinZip based secured archive prior to WinZip v8.0, but cannot guarantee PKWare based ones.  Is the zip function in the backup PKWare based?  I'd appreciate any help or information your could give me.

Thanks,
