Passwords not encrypting?

Using 4.1 (b288):
I somehow lost the ability to encrypt passwords, and they are all entered in plain text. I tried resetting the Add page for my Users table, but to no avail. My only option was to md5() the value in the _add.php page like this:

// processing password
...
if(!($value===false))

{

$avalues["password"]=md5($value);

}
...


Is this a known issue? If not, where does the password get encrypted, because I tried grep'ing for 'md5' and I cannot seem to figure out which function is check when "Encrypt Passwords" is checked.
Also, what are the implications on doing it this way?

Passwords are encrypted when user register himself using register.php page.

I am finalizing a system for passwords in the $PROGRAM_DIR\source folder, because if you can discern between the table, you should be able to change the password and re-encrypt it. Perhaps this will be a future update?
