Hi Martin,

I just got done doing that, and i got the same thing!  :-(

Here's something interesting though.  There's an id field that's set to
AUTO_INCREMENT.  I did a "SELECT * FROM passcodes WHERE passcode='P1000000'"
This gave me this:

id         |     passcode
-----------------------
1           |    P1000000
82145   |    P1000000
209398 |    P1000000

Shouldn't the ID's be further apart than that?  Know what I'm saying?

Tyler
