 * When using this tool to change the table prefix from wp_ to sometingelse_ then
   the usermeta keys wp_capabilities are not changed to reflect this. The result
   is that all users are locked out. This can be resolved by using phpMyAdmin or
   some other database tool.
 * But the plugin authors should reaaly fix this.
 * This plugin cannot be recommended until this is fixed. The option ot change the
   table prefix should be removed until it does the job properly.

 * Hi Knut,
 * This is an old issue (when the plugin was not ours yet) and we fixed it with 
   the latest version. I suggest you download the latest version.
 * If you have any further queries or suggestions on the plugin, feel free to post
   them on our [WebsiteDefender forums](http://www.websitedefender.com/forums).
