I accidentally left this script on for a few minutes, and now I can’t access my database at all.

```php

for ($counter=0; $counter<10240; $counter++) {
    mysql_query("INSERT INTO new_table (id, ***,*** ) VALUES ($counter, ###, ###)");
}

```

I can get to the Cpanel PHPMYADMIN or connect to my mysql. All selections of that database are denied or soemthing. THe other databases are still working. I have some data that I wanna keep in that database, but now (i think) is flooded with 10240 rows of crap in some table.

Any way I can get that data while my host hasn’t found out yet? :hurt:
