Admin user disabled after upgrade 7.0.4

During both my dev install test upgrade and my live upgrade of AbleMods.com, my primary admin login account was disabled after the install. The IsApproved flag was set to false. I have to admit I did not log into the site before I did the upgrade - it's possible the flag was already set but I sure wouldn't know why.
I was able to manually reset the flag in the SQL table so no biggie. But it does raise a concern for doing client upgrades...thoughts?

We have done a couple of upgrades, but I'm not sure that happened. I'll have to watch for it. I remember having trouble with logins on a couple of sites in development and I had to activate the Install/ResetAdmin.aspx. (You have to edit it first- instructions are at the top.)

Well I'm ticked at myself because I didn't log into the admin before I did the upgrade - just never crossed my mind. So I can't be 100% sure it was because of the upgrade....
But I'm positive you'd know it if it happened to you - your primary admin login account will be unable to authenticate after the upgrade.
Sure boggles my mind how my site would have ended up with the (only) admin account login disabled all by itself prior to the upgrade - my gut tells me the upgrade did it. I just can't prove it (yet).....

Not necessarily true- sometimes I work on so many things in a day, I'll just fix what happened rather than try to figure out what happened. I will watch for it, though.
