An excellent project, Stripe Snoop started by Billy Hoffman, a Georgia Tech computer science student, contains schematics, source code and a wide variety of information about the standards used to store all sorts of information on your magnetic cards."

I've tried this software. It's awesome. It read every stripe I threw at it - even the brown stripe in my jockeys!!!
