Default Recovery of a password-protected excel 2003 file

Hi.
I have a password protected excel 2003 file (with known password) that
used to reside on a file server and was being updated by a number of
people every day. At some point it became corupt and no-one can now
open it. When I try to open it, it pops up the message: "...The file
may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location
or, server the document is stored on may be not responding" and cannot
continue. So far, only one demo fix program (Excelfix) reached the
point where it recognized that the file is password protected but it
can't actually handle it because of the password protection.

Please identify any application or on-line service that can handle
password-protected corrupt excel files.

Thanks in advance
