Default Forgotten BIOS password

Does anyone know where I can get a utility to find a forgotten bios password.
I don't really want to reset the bios to its basic state by removing the
battery or linking the clear pins as there are a lot of settings that have been
changed from their default settings and I don't want to loose them.

Go to www.bootdisk.com and look for a prog called 'KILLCMOS', youre AV
scanner might pick it up as a virus/trojan but rest assured it ISNT!!
