    First I am pretty new with mysql. I logged into my DB via phpMyadmin and i am trying to manually change a password of one of my users except all the passwords look something like this: ma9sePmMwr9mg

    They all start with "ma" and then some string but I have no clue how to decipher it. Can i just change the value to anything I want? For instance change the password to "work" and then my user would be able to login again?

    I need help ASAP!!

    Fill in the field with anything you want and the drop down to side select the encryption type to MD5 or PASSWORD or ENCRYPT or whatever encryption method your script uses.
