Dear all: Is there a function can decrypt md5 ?? I don't have any bad ideas. I just want to know whether md5 can be decrypted or not.
It can't be decrypted (you can't get the original value back) but it can have collisions in which two items will have the same md5 sum. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5CRK -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
