Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: 3.1.1
PHP version: 5.3
MySQL version: (unknown)
Host: HostGator
Admin Tools version: 2.5.6

Description of my issue: Since installing admin tools, I cannot save in the user area if the user has superuser rights. I can create a new user and save it but as soon as I tried to make that user be superuser I receive an error message that says "An Error Has Occurred, 403 Access Denied, Return to Control Panel". I have searched through the manual and can't find where such a setting would be to prevent that. I ended up disabling Admin Tools setting the user rights to super admin then reactivating Admin Tools. Can you lead me in the right direction of what setting to modify? Thanks.
