I have the same issue. Found the config.inc.php file and it has a line near the top ... with user name and password e.g.,

$GB_DB["user"] = "c141hea_agbook1";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "xxxxxxx";

(I have changed the value of the "pass" setting for display here, but the one listed in the file bears no resemblance to what I have been using in the past.
I don't if this is encrypted or someone hacked it somehow...I've tried editing the file and uploading it...to no avail. I checked the actual database for my user ID via browsing my 'auth' table...what's in there is encrypted into something I can't make any sense of at all.

The 'forgot_pass.php script discussed earlier in this thread doesn't seem to work for me either... Don't know where to proceed from here as I can't
do any admin work on the guestbook. I'm running version 2.4.2

Any ideas how to reset this so I can get to my admin functions will be greatly appreciated.
