I have an input script which is a bare minimum for hiding the password the user enters and stores and encrypted password. However, I am unable to retrieve the encrypted pw and decrypt it as I do not have the code for the decrypt function. Does anybody know of available scripts for password input, verification and retrieval?

Yes, this is the wrong list for this question, but I don't know where the right one is. Decrypting a password is a serious security problem. Instead of trying to decrypt the stored password, you should encrypt the entered password and compare that with the encrypted stored password.
