You guys appear to missing (and ETS appears to be misleading) on the fact hex is a commonly used format for storing passwords (classically, hex-to-char, or char-to-hex).

Using this converter:

With:

fb4e568623b5f8cf7e932e6ba7eddc0db9f42a712718f488bdc0bf880dd3

Gets us (excluding quotation marks):

".NV.#…~..k…"

There appears to be 15 characters.

Normal encryption procedures like AES (128, 192, 256) require at a minimum '16 bytes' for a password (disregarding initialisation vector AKA salt - also 16 bytes).

We only have, from what I can see here, 15 characters (15 bytes). There appears to be a character missing.

A single character.

Q, perhaps?

.NV.#…~..k…Q ?

or

Q.NV.#…~..k… ?

Strange post indeed. It's not sufficiently long enough for most password encryptions.
