Carrying on with what theshiftexchange said

As soon as you salt them, its not a simple lookup, even if you have the salt and hashed password infront of you. The reason for this, is because they would need to try every single hash of your salt to get the hashed password, so they would try a.$salt, b.$salt.... (they would also need to check $salt.a etc)

So they now don't have these existing lookup tables, as its not the standard MD5 algorithm, so they have to try each one themselves

That cleared things up a bit?

EDIT: shiftexchange just updated hist post to include what I just said lol
