foc-u, hacking and your data (a warning)
#16
I'd be horrifically surprised if SMF didn't use MD5 as a minimum on the passwords. These days though, MD5 is beginning to show a weakness against the sheer processing power available in modern machines coupled with the use of Rainbow Tables (too large a topic to cover)

On most systems I work with I use SHA-1 as minimum but am often using SHA-256 now
