you can't decrypt md5 as it's a one-way-hash. you can just guess the value. this is called bruteforce and takes some years on random passwords with more than 10 characters.

passwords are double md5 encrypted when i remember correctly, wich is currently verry safe. No need to increase your security I guess. ;)

I think a larger problem for passwords is that they are too obvious or to easy. Only way to overcome that is to make some kind of password strength check system.
