Well that's poor. It should be non-reversable. All my password code is.
Lucky for the conversion effort, tho.

passwords


The Passwords are stored in plain text in the database or in a very
simple encryption method in the registry which is something like this:

Convert each letter of the password into the hex version of its ASCII
value
Do the same for the domain name
Add the values of hex values of the first letter of password to the hex
value of the first letter of the domain name and store.
Repeat for the rest of the password - if the password is longer than the
domain name then wrap around and start from the beginning of the domain
name again.

It is a while since I had to do it but it is something very close to the
above

So, does anyone have a way to retrieve user passwords for a migration?
