title: Using an ASIC to brute force MD5
body: <p>Is it possible to use an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) to brute force MD5 hashes and thus reverse them down to their original form? I know there could be multiple collisions, but leaving that aside, would it be possible? The idea interests me because I happen to have ASIC Miner Block Erupters which are ASIC's used to generate the SHA-256 hash, but why not MD5?
  Thanks in advance.</p>
