Indeed. I wouldn't be worried, unless your password is uber-simple like '12345' or something. The more people that put words into it unknowingly what it does, the more md5's it will have in its database to reverse. I don't think it actually does anything, it merely uses a database of hashes to words.

Or atleast thats what I want to believe...

Actually you can enter "wel8co879me" and it will change it to md5 and back to itself.

Isn't this illegal?

And i thought encrypting was enough

Actually that's probably because it immediately stores the words you enter
