I am attempting to integrate the vb login with other areas on my site-- can I confirm that the value stored in the cookie: bbpassword, should be equal to:

MD5 of ([value of password stored in user database].[value of salt stored in user databse])

No, it uses the constant COOKIE_SALT, not the user salt.
