If you have accidentally configured JHacker Watch to lock yourself out from the back-end of your Joomla! website, you can disable (unpublish) the JHacker Watch plug-in as follows:

> Log into your mysql admin (phpmyadmin for example) and run the query below for your Joomla! platform.
> Replace the #__ with your table prefix.
> By executing the query, the plugin is disabled and you should be able to regain access.

Joomla! 1.5 website

UPDATE #__plugins SET published = 0 WHERE element LIKE '%jhackerwatch%' AND folder='system';

Joomla! 1.6/1.7/2.5 website

UPDATE #__extensions SET enabled = 0 WHERE element LIKE '%jhackerwatch%' AND type='plugin' AND folder='system';

Joomla! 3.x website

UPDATE #__extensions SET enabled = 0 WHERE element LIKE '%jhackerwatch%' AND type='plugin' AND folder='system';
