I just tested this, and it appears that register_globals don't even need
to be on to change the password. I'm not sure why that's in the
instructions any more.
Thanks for bringing this up. We're looking into it.

Now that I look a little closer, the instructions say to set
register_globals On only to initially set the admin password. Right
after that it says to turn it back off.
I'm sure that QMT will have a proper fix for this in due time.
