Hey all, got a problem I started seeing when I try to upgrade from version 3.3.7 to 4.5.1.  The host, admin, and other account passwords apparently get corrupted.  I can not login.  I found a work-around, by creating a new user, then going into SQL manager and grabbing the password and password salt and copying it to my host account.  However, when I login then, and try to change passwords, I get an error saying "bad data."  So... I waited for the next release (4.5.3) thinking that might address this, but seems I am having the same issues with the new release as well.  Any help would be appreciated.

When you upgraded the site, did you copy the MachineDecryptionKey and MachineValidationKey from the old config.web file to the new one. Without doing this existing users cannot log in.
