It is possible that it's MD5, but the field in MySQL is only a varchar(16).  
I've seen things like that before...  I've also been in a place where they 
offloaded creating passwords to htpasswd.

I would suggest looking at the code where new accounts are created (if there 
is code to do that).  That should tell you what's going on.
