 * I’m sorry but how does that response answer the problem I explained? What’s happening
   is that new pages that DO exist are resolving to 404 errors (because of permalink
   caching issues within the wp_options table). Defining a 404 document is not the
   solution.

 * If you have access to the backend database, you can update the values in wp_users(
   at a minimum, change user_login, user_nicename and user_email). Then use the “
   Lost your password?” option on the login page to get a new password.
 * Passwords are stored in a special hash formatting (see [phpass 0.1](http://www.openwall.com/phpass/))
   if you want to get your geek on. But, really it’s much easier to go the password
   reset route!
