 MD5 is an hashing algorithm often used to store passwords in a way that can be verified later.

However, security attacks often use dictionaries of MD5 hashes to discover the original passwords.

This class implements of different approach to compute hashes using MD5 that makes it much harder to build MD5 dictionaries. It applies MD5 several times, thus making it more difficult to discover the original passwords.
