No problem. Have fun, be safe :).
Don't be afraid to ask other questions if you have any :).
[edit]Just double checked myself, and I think you stated the pin numbers wrong. The bridge should be between 25-26, not 17-18. I'm 99% sure you number the pins counter clockwise around the chip. This means that the bridged pins should be 3rd and 4th from the USB port on the top of the chip.[/edit]
