I am writing a script for my website but I want it to use the same users off the forums but does anyone know what encryption vBulletin uses for passwords?

md5?

It's represented like this in MySQL:
md5(concat(md5('password'), user.salt))

I believe its a double md5 with a salt also stored in the db.
So it gets md5ed by javascript, then sent, then md5ed again with a salt.
But regardless, it would probably be easier to integrate with vbulletin rather then rebuilding the wheel and writing a second login system.
