just curious if there is a wireless network finder/hacking tool that will locate or find the passwords/or to just allow access to any wireless network ? MY freinds girlfreinds kids keep changing the passwords and in turn making it very difficult to log onto the wreles net via there desktop computer.

It really depends on the encryption being used. But for the tools, take a look at BackTrack and it's WIFI tools. There's plenty of video tutorials on how to use BT for WIFI hacking, but mostly for WEP encryption, which is hardly used today (hopefully).

Yes there are.

tools like Wireshark, commview and air-craking all of them can crack a password for you.. Well, commview is a sniffer. but is needed for air cracking.

We need more specifics people...

Aircrack-ng is preferably the most recommended. Wire shark pending if your on the local network which im sure you are because it's your "GF" ...
We can't direct him toward backtrack because i can almost guarantee that he wont the tool-set to run the aircrack properly. So if your going to use backtrack to perform these tasks you might want to research these fields.
