Cannot login, even as 'guest'

Hi,
I've just installed the Developer Edition of ImageVue on my dev server to try it out and I can't login to the admin section at all. Even using the "guest" password it doesn't work. Just says "incorrect password"
Here is my site:
http://www.simonandmaira.com/gallery/admin/
Here is my passwords.php
<?php
// Instructions on setting passwords here: www.photo.gallery/support/passwords/
// To enable your admin password, remove the double slash in the second line below and change the password.
$data['guest'] = 'guest';
$data['password'] = '*';
?>
Is this a restriction of the Developer Edition or something like that? The only other thing I can think of is that the variable is being posted to the flash file properly, or is being messed up on input somehow.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hmm something strange, never seen anything like it. Can you please PM me your ftp l/p for closer investigation?

I have the same problem
I get a flashy at the bottom of the login page saying 'incorrect password, try again'.
This is fresh install.
Turning on viewable passwords in the adminconfig.ini shows me using the correct pw, as well as guest, but neither work. Frustrating to say the least. So far I like the app, but there does not seem to be a 'troubleshooting' section to what docs there are. I'll look around more
*(btw, setting permissions to 777 on a web server is a horrible idea)*

Well you can set them to 775 or 666 or not set at all, just make sure php can write to folders and create thumbnails.
So, can anyone give me their ftp logins to check please? I feel its somehow related to latest changes in code although not sure how to reproduce that bug locally.

I don't use ftp, but ssh.
I will pm you a pw to test with

Sorry was my bad.
Re-download imagevue or just this file:
