You can't actually decrypt md5 I thought?
Any site that says they can just has a huge database of many many md5'ed words.

You can't decrypt md5s, you can crack them though. The easiest way to do this is to download a program or use an online script.

Best way is to download a 6GB+ Rainbow.

You put in the md5 and it will decrypt it, or vice versa.Last edited by shizzle; 11-10-2008 at 09:38 AM.

As you said yourself, a MD5 string is a hash. It is not encrypted. Thereby you cannot decrypt it, you can only attempt to compare the MD5 hash with a large table of MD5 hashes along with their none-hashed version.

That is useful, but it's not decrypting it. Originally Posted by N9
