anyone know vB's password encryption algorithm?

[aznick]

I'd like to do a chat that requires a message board username/password to get in. Does anyone know how vBulletin encrypts passwords?

md5($inputedpassword)

in php will get you a string thats comparable against the password stored in the user table.

md5 encryption is not reversable, but the same string will always encrypt identically. Most other languages have md5 functions or libarys (perl, c, c++, java, etc..)
