Not working for the moment, i keep trying.
What i find is that Mot de passe_: is 
Mot de passe.:

Here is the describe of the character:


        character:   (160, #o240, #xa0)
preferred charset: iso-8859-1 (Latin-1 (ISO/IEC 8859-1))
       code point: 0xA0
           syntax: . 	which means: punctuation
         category: b:Arabic j:Japanese l:Latin
      buffer code: #xC2 #xA0
        file code: #xC2 #xA0 (encoded by coding system utf-8)
          display: by this font (glyph code)
     courier:pixelsize=14:foundry=adobe:weight=bold:slant=r:width=normal (#x61)
   hardcoded face: nobreak-space

Character code properties are not shown: customize what to show

There is an overlay here:
 From 1 to 17
  face                 regex-tool-matched-face

\([Mot de passe]*.*:*[blank]?\)
that regex work in regex-tool but don't work in the whole regexp
