To my knowledge it is a 1 way encryption... what i would do in that case is
reset the password to a randomly selected password... give them the new
generated password and strongly recomend they change it.

if i want to make a 'forgot my password' thing, how would i be able to
retrieve their password if i have it encrypted in a table using the
PASSWORD() function?
Thanks! - Noah
