If you had asked that question in a windows xp newsgroup, the standard answer is without your exported encryption key, your data is as good as gone. There is no backdoor without the encryption key and you *may* be able to recover the key *if* the account is still on the computer, but the steps required are not very easy to begin with. Search google or subscribe to the m$ newsgroup for this very issue, it's a very common question and the answer is there. No version of *nix can recover the encrypted data without the key as well.


Hate to bust your bubble,
