The circ password will be changed to BREAK4new effectively immediately.  I 
expect that this may make icons with scripts that logged directly into 
Advance fail.  People should learn either to login to emmy directly using 
Host Presenter or re-design their scripts to stop at a login prompt without 
assuming a user name or password.  As I mentioned in an earlier message 
this is poor security and it has hampered the ability of some people to use 
their assigned passwords.
