I made a small script for personal use that I’d like to share with you.
It salts an MD5 string with SHA1. Read more about salt hashes at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_%28cryptography%29
It is a more secure way of storing hashes, as mentioned read above for more details.
It’s not the conventional way of salting, but it can easily be modded.
Just a bit of fun :D
Really cool script you’ve come up with! Thanks for sharing! ;)
Hi guys,
I want to share the tools I use to hash string using md5 and sha1
– Md5: Online Md5 Converter
– Sha1: Sha1 Encryption
Pretty useful tools!

Nice script, because the salt is actually the password you wouldn’t store it in the database, meaning that it’d be virtually impossible to crack this hash (unless you knew the hashing algorithm). You could modify it and make it more difficult too, maybe reverse the sha1 so that the first character of the md5 pass is salted with the last character of the sha1 pass.
I might just use this.. :)
