admin page/password prompt loop

[slee]

i'm trying to change a few things, but seem to be getting caught in a loop. i can log in and admin page appears, but when i go to click on any link i get redirected to the log in page. entering the log/pass gets me back to the admin page, but again clicking on any links takes me to the log-in page. anyone have any ideas on what could cause this? the store itself seems to be fine for customers

The session time limit should be modified. If you undo the changes by setting the value to it's previous setting, will the problem still persists ?

If i could log into the admin panel, i would change it :)

Unless i can do it through FTP ??

Thanks
