Mandatory information about my setup:
Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yep

Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yep
Joomla! version: 1.7.3
PHP version: (unknown)
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: (optional, but it helps us help you)
Admin Tools version: 2.2.a1
Description of my issue:
So after getting my first attempted login with bogus administrator credentials, I decided to implement the secret URL functionality. The issue that I've seen is that that then "breaks" the administrator back-end because Joomla isn't smart enough to append the secret word onto it's own URLs.
For instance before the secret URL, to get to admin tools would be a URL like:
"website.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_admintools"
If you implement the secret URL and you go to:
"website.com/administrator/index.php?secretword"
you can log in just fine, but the back-end URLs remain the same. So any attempts to use links in the back-end, end up sending me to my homepage and I get the email with "Reason: Admin Query String"
It would be really nice to have admin tools automatically "fix" all of the backend URLs so that any link in Joomla has the secret word appended correctly..so the links function properly.
