[X4U] password not accepted - help

[Jan Melichar]

Thanks for the advice but...

Yes I did originally enter the administrative password;
I have use the application for several months without any problems;
it has now asked the for the admin password which I have not forgotten 
and entered but the dialogue box asking for it comes back after a few 
seconds;
I have tested the admin passwords which works elsewhere - for example 
unlocking and locking some system preferences.
This is why I'm stuck
