The last couple of weeks I have been having P/W problems; even though I have my system set to "remember me" it is asking for user name and P/W; then rejecting the P/W.

I have now had to request a P/W reset twice.

Is there a problem with either the server or my membership??

I've reported this to the head nerd. Wait, he may be a geek. Either way, it's being looked into. Usually, the issue is your cookies. I like cookies. It may be something in your security settings. Have you made any changes lately?

Sorry, I had to request a new password to be able to answer you.

Nope - have changed nothing. No new apps, no OS upgrades, nada.

It just keeps punting my password. ??

Well, my previous ID or password seems to be DOA.

I cannot log in under that account on any computer other than the one in my office. I have had to create this new ID which is letting me log in.

I would sure like to hear something about whether my ID is history or not.

So it works on at least one computer? That's odd. The administrator has been looking into it.

It works on one because I've never signed off on it, frankly a bit afraid to.

Oh. Since you're on, send a PM direct to Maelstrom. He's the admin looking after this.
