>>> An IV for MD5? I seriously doubt that.
Using google I found:
The initialization vector is the value to which the MD5 internal variables
are initially set before beginning the hashing process.

An IV for MD5? I seriously doubt that. Note that MD5 is not reversible
encryption. It's a hash algorithm (one-way encryption). Maybe you're
talking
about adding a salt? But this would be password scheme {SMD5} not {MD5}.
BTW: {SSHA} should be preferred!
To make things more clear here are good explanations which also apply to

Ciao, Michael.
