password encryption...

I have a problem encrypting passwords. My webhost only supports standard DES with the crypt function, so I can't use anything remotely secure. Is there another way I could use md5 or blowfish (preferrably blowfish) to encrypt passwords, other than the crypt function?

 

I found a way to use MD5, but I would still like to use blowfish. Is there any way I can?

I use MD5 and SHA1 together.


SO in PHP
$mystring = MD5($mystring) . SHA1($mystring);

 

That's what I already tried. The md5 and sha1 idea sounds good though.
