>Description:
I can login using any password, provided my real password is the first substring.  
For example if my password was "plant", a password of "plant72495" will authenticate.  
>How-To-Repeat:
install DES and set a password.  Then login, inserting random characters after your correct password
>Fix:
Uninstalling DES fixes it.
