cryptation
#2
We never decrypt the password. This would make for a very insecure system in Open source because anyone could just look into the function and decrypt any passwords they might find.

The function used to hash the password is passhash() and can be found at line 535 of /admin/inc/template_functions.php. It's a very straight-forward sha1 encryption of your password and a random SALT.
