 * Cool! Looking forward to hearing how he did it!
 * I’m following along with this post – you sure you don’t just have your UN and
   PW written somewhere that he can get to it? A file on the desktop named “wordpress_password.
   txt” or something…LoL!
 * Have a good day,

 * Hey Mary –
 * I don’t think you have cPanel access at WP.com – nor do I think you can get it.
   You’re going to need a shared hosting account somewhere – that way you get cPanel(
   phpMyAdmin) and also will have the ability to create your own mySQL databases,
   etc…
 * Get a cheap hosting account somewhere for testing. They’re only a couple bucks
   a month usually – and you can often find one to throw in a free domain.
 * Cheers,
    Chad

 * I just re-read my last post and it sounded rude I think…That was unintended. 
   Apologies.
 * What I meant was that I think you’d just tell him that you’re impressed (feed
   his ego) and want to know how he did it…
 * I’ve been that cocky student – I would have been honored to have a person ‘above
   me’ ask for my assistance…..He just needed to let you know you needed some assistance.
   🙂
 * Anyway – no hard feelings – sorry for the quasi-rude last post.
 * Thanks,
    Chad

 * ….It’s debatable if he’s not the kind of guy you can trust. I’d think that you
   _could_ trust him. Why would he tell you that he cracked your site otherwise?
 * Here’ s brilliant suggestion: Why don’t you ask him how he did it? Then you can
   fix it.
 * Seems like he may have the answer you’re looking for…..
 * Just my, often unwanted, opinion,
    Chad
 * If you do ask him and you fix it – please post the solution here so others can
   find this in the future….For when they don’t have the luxury of asking the guys
   who broke in….

 * BUMP!!!! I’m gonna keep bumping this until it is finally answered.
 * Sorry for the persistence – but there is a lot of people looking for this answer
   and what better place to have the answer than the archives at WP.org?
 * Thanks everyone!
