    I can't be entirely specific as I use other directory software on my sites - however, as a rule of thumb all you need to do is this:

    1. log into phpMyAdmin from your control panel
    2. locate the password hash in the database
    3. use this site to generate a new hash (probably MD5)
    4. log into the phpld admin panel with the password you hashed
    5. change the password to something else

    Hope that helps mate! :)

    No problem - let me know when you're up and running and I'll trade directory links with you! ;)
