dumb me set up a new forum to get prepared for a forum conversion and when I set up the admin account, I can't remember the admin password and I used a bogus email address so I can't reset it. How can I reset the admin password so I don't have to reinstall the forums?
UPDATE mybb_users SET password = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6', salt = '' WHERE uid = '1'; 

Password will be 'test'.
