Text Passwords Wordpress Plugin

Any reviews? It seems like it would be a cool idea to be able to spy on your users I did not find this in the wordpress plugin database (I don't see how they would approve it anyway) so my question is did anyone use it? Does it really work?

    It may be a good idea for the admin but not for the users.... especially if/when the site gets hacked. Many of users use the same password everywhere ... so this could be a problem.

    I would've done the plugin differently. I'd at least encrypt the data and have it available for decryption by the admin when necessary.

    Are you using WordPress? Have you tried qSandbox yet?

    From the site: "New passwords are saved as text instead of hashes."

    Why would you want to do this? You're just asking for problems. Spy on your users? Let that file get found and see how quick your wordpress site starts blasting spam and gets shut down.
