 OUCH !

 You are WRONG !

 crypt() is a oneway function.

 This means nobody can decrypt its output.

 The passwords are compared by crypting the input of the user
 is and compareing the crypted results.

 Why does someone want to crack passwords of his users ??
 Or are you a hacker trying another silly approach.
