HELP! Locked myself out

[Sillex]

Hi guys,
Unfortunately, I was toying with the Administration box, and I took away access to look at the Administration box from myself. When I try to look at it, it says Please contract web administrator...except I'm the Top Administrator. How do I re-enable file access for the admin box?

Thanks

Oops. Tell us what you can access from the admin section. The password is stored in the database, so you may have some trouble.

if its in the database, can he go into phpmyadmin and look?

help...i was trying to log into my admin tool and it kept telling me wrong password, even though i know it was correct (i changed it from the default yesterday) - now i'm locked out. how do i get back in?
i also tried the 'forgot password' option and that did nothing, just kept telling me my password didn't match, which makes no sense.

I'm actually not sure that it is the database. I always assumed it was, because I can't find it stored inside any files. It seems logical that it would be stored there, but I'm not sure if it is for sure and if so where in the database, and whether or not it is encrypted.
