Looks like hex to me. I have no clue. What did you get it from and why do you need it?

Who's password are you trying to decrypt?

EDIT: I converted it. I'd give it to you but I don't think your intentions are...good? Not that I'm one to talk...

Its not a password. AT least I don't think it is. I'm just trying to figure out how to convert to plain english text

It's an MD5 hash, and yes, it is a password. It's a combination of upper and lower case letters, no numbers, no special symbols. It's 6 letters long That's all I'll say without more info.

EDIT: Example of the password: CoOkIe

A = 10
B = 11
C = 12
D = 13
E = 14
F = 15

Now that you have all numbers, try to see the position, for example 3 = C, 4 = D and so on...

I posted the answer: MaXeLl

However, know this: MD5 is usually used on passwords, or other information that needs to be encrypted for security (account numbers, passwords, etc). Sensitive info. But..he could have made the MD5 himself, in which case he's just playing a game as you say. If it seems fishy to you, I suggest you not give him the key.

None of the MD5 reverse lookup databases I checked have that hash.

But how did you do it?

If you don't know how, then you don't need to know how. You should never need to do this. I told you all the relevant information, anyways. Just think about it.
