Decrypt it? Even if they figured out the algorithm used to encrypt/decrypt the packets, there's probably additional hashing going on for the username and password. I highly doubt they can steal the account information that way, like Rico said it's far easier to target the client machine and simply steal the information before it's encrypted.
