It's the exact same password, but run this query:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `password` = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6' `salt` = '' WHERE `uid` = '1';

Change your UID if it isn't 1, and then login with test as the password.
sorry Matt Bro i should have used Searched Option

thank you
It's what's used when encrypting the password and used for logging in. It needs to be reset to blank so you can login with 'test' but when you change your password on the forum it'll create a salt again.
