ASP.NET Membership Provider - Validate Hashed Security Question/Answer?

Like you said, the values in the DB are hashed, so in order to validate what the user typed in matches what's in the DB, hashed the value that the user entered and compare the two hashed values. If they are equal, it validates.

Looking at the provider, it does not expose any methods for you to perform your desired step two.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
