Hash: SHA1

Just a little clarification on terminology.

I think when you are saying "de-hashed" you mean cracked by means of
known-hash lookup table, or in other words comparing with a table of
known hash values.

I think it would be troublesome to actually 'de-hash' or in other
words to actually reverse an md5 hash derived from an arbitrary and
sufficiently complex clear text.
