SHA1 produces a 40 character string.
I will add a feature request for MD5 encryption, you can also post to the wishlist forum.
personally, I think for password encryption SHA1 is a better option since MD5 is a 32 character hash. Fewer characters = easier to hack through brute force. just my 2 cents.
Ok, I just red the wikipedia thing about SHA1 that it hast been cracked :-)
But 40 thats, what I needed to know.
thanks a lot,
Denis
