to my understanding it still uses MD5 but with 'salt' for added security...

Yes PR2 uses MD5 and salts. I'm not really sure about the logon module, i'll have to look around the admin cp for a bit. Hmm maybe I should upgrade the lastest PR2 first so I have everything .

The custom authentication module is still being developed I believe.

And MyBB use this type of password encryption (after all the functions have been broken down and cramped together:

$md5pass = md5(md5($salt).md5($rawpass));

so as you can see, its secure Plus theres a new system called loginkeys which makes it possible to get passwords out of cookies for extra protection.

Lol. True, it could be both But I was meaning it makes it possible for MyBB to stop putting passwords in cookies for extra protection, hence get them out and replace with loginkeys
