Reverse MD5

Hello,

Is there any way I can reverse the MD5 output,

I mean from

md5dll::GetMD5String "md5me"
Output: [78931288ASH48324890243] (Some MD5 output)

is there any way I can get the original string back?

md5dll::GetMD5ToString "78931288ASH48324890243"
Output: [md5me]

Please suggest any alternative idea as well.
(I search for encryption as well and only thing found is a blowfish pluging but this link I assume is broken http://www.apollo51.demon.nl/nsis/Encryption.zip, any ideas?)
Thanks.

No, MD5 is a hash and the data used to create the hash is lost. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5

@ n_baua,
If I got your point correctly, this should be what you're looking for,
