MD5 stands for Message-Digest Algorithm 5, and is a widely-used encryption method. MD5 was considered impossible to crack, however, as most people will tell you, no encryption method is impossible to crack.
MD5 hashes are also used as a "digital signature" because if anything is changed, including case, the hash will be completely different.
