Just to clarify and be 110% sure.

<CFSET MyHashedPassword = Hash(MyPassword)>

It is IMPOSSIBLE having the variable "MyHashedPassword" to get the password back.
Could a really clever hacker do it??

MM say it is one-way !!

The Hash function takes a variable-length string and converts it into a 32-byte, 
hexadecimal string, using the MD5 algorithm developed by Ron Rivest. The MD5 algorithm 
is a one-way hash, meaning that there is no conversion possible from the hash result 
back into the source string. 

Any comments.
