    First, a reminder to several (including some in this thread) that
top-posting is against the law here.

    Second, another, more important reminder:

<?php
$username = '" OR 1 OR "';
?>

    Since the first rows in a database are usually the default
administrator logins, the first to match what is basically a 'match if
this is a row' statement will be logged in.  The moral of the story:
don't forget to clean your input (which I'm sure ya'all were doing....
but with top-posters, you never know ;-P).
