I have tried many passwords... (more than 5 times ... in 5 minutes) and for some reason the forgotten link doesn't send reminder password (though as I'm looking in the database the email is entered correctly).

I have two options:

a) I can somehow open registeration through ftp and create a new user and then copy the password and salt to my admins fields.

b) this seems a bit strange but since I am desperate here I can post the md5 and salt and hope someone here can decode it.

or even there is an option c) here which is closing the computer and going to bed and hope tomorrow is a better day.

so many choices...
