Now he's gonna ask for the difference between those two.

Technically an empty password still returns a hash value (0), which makes JCS believe that the level is still passworded. JCS uses a special hash constant that is equal to NULL. Whatever password results in this hash will be considered empty and the password box will no longer appear. Neobeo managed to list a few such passwords here.
