Hi guys,
For some reason I cant get into the admin panel on my forum. I dont remember changing the password, but I havent been in it for a while so I might of.

Now, this is my question. How can I manually allow a user to login to admin panel via editing mysql tables?

Additionally, how can I manually reset the password for admin via going into phpmyadmin and editing it? It is not just 1 md5 hash, but rather 2 isnt it? (like $newpass=md5(md5("passhere")); )

Finally, where does it store how many login attempts I have? I tried looking in the table realyl quick to see if it stores the ip somewhere so I'd have to wait the 15 minutes but didnt find it, but didnt look too hard. I wanted to reset my wait so I could try a few more passwords lol.

Anyways, I'd appreciate any help.
thanks
