Go to you're SQL manager (for example phpMyAdmin)

Go to you're guestbook

Go to the table: book_auth

And change the password field into 773359240eb9a1d9

now you can login with you're username and password=123

the above will not work with the latest versions of MySQL as they have apparently changed the password encryption. I made www.carbonize.co.uk/reset.zip to let people change their password simply regardless of their MySQL version.
