    Application does not allow to put smaller passwords
    
    Password0 - D5FBB0C7C20D9CE79D3B837BD6FB3505
    Password3 - D5FBB0C7C20D9CE7B872B3A0BD587B8D
    Password4 - D5FBB0C7C20D9CE7BE369511C82DD666
    Password5 - D5FBB0C7C20D9CE75B475FA1726B4870

    This is a real algorithm. It is used in a small
    application used at the company I work for, I posted
    this because i need to make a password audit for weak
    passwords, I have full access to the database this is
    how i get access to the hashes!
    We do not have access to the source code, so i can;t
    figure out the algorithm
