After installiing this app re-login was required when I restarted the login screen screen should have stopped and waited for my password instead it flashed then the admin desktop appeared and all seemed normal. Until I went to the Sysem Preferences to check my password. The computer does not accept my password! It comes back with "Sorry, you have entered an invalid username or password." I haven't changed my password in 3 years! I'm afraid to shut down now at all! I'm backing up the entire machine. #@!***%

After Log Out my Admin Password malfunctioned - perkowski
I just purchased a 800 gig drive so the First thing I did was a complete backup. Manually securing my critical work.Yes, I was working in the Admin level.
I am using the latest and greatest from Apple. 10.4.9 I'm on a G4 PowerBook 1.25 ghz 1 gig RAM
Hopefully it was just some whacky hiccup on the previous Logout.
I am about to Restart. Wish me luck!
I'll post an update - It may be a while.....

Well, I restarted and the Login Screen flashed again taking me on to the Desktop. I opened the System Preferences and checked the Accounts clicking on the Lock the password dialog came up and I entered my password. I received the "Unauthorized" notice. On a hunch I tried again with a BLANK password and bingo I was in! What the hell? How did my Admin Password change to an Empty Field? I changed it immediately to the old password. (I'm old I need to remember this puppy)Anyway...No fault of the software it was a Log Out/Log In glitch.
Thanks for the concern.
I'll post a new message with a Title that Recants any problem with the App.

Hi,I doubt that this can be related to Finder Browser as it interacts only with the Finder and your problem appears to be with the login window which is a separate application, but, I am interested to know more about your system and what you have done since the previous reboot.
Were you working in your admin account and have you recently updated OS X (and to what version)?
It may be easiest for you to go to http://www.tekuris.com/contact and I will attempt to help you in any way I can.
