[TYPO3] Encrypted FE User Password

[Justin]

Pascal, thanks for your reaction.
I just downloaded kb_md5fepw but not yet installed it.
But when iam doing that change to the code like you said, is it possible for 
the backend users to see the password of the FE users?

Because I want that BE users can't read the passwords..

Thanks again!
