Hello Bernard, Geocities is part of yahoo now I think. I believe that if you go to a login page and type in your original email address (which is often your account name) and there should be a checkbox somewhere nearby that you click if you have forgotten your account name and/or password, you will be taken to a page that asks you to type in your original email address, and possibly allow you to change the password by having a temporary one sent to that email address. If this doesn't work and there aren't any other ways get rid of the site, then I believe that after a certain period of time that the site has not been updated, they will send a notice to the site owner's email address that it will soon be deleted; after a short period of time it will be deleted for you. good luck, charles -- Charles Ufford Calen the Border Collie CGC - now in Heaven Oriskany, NY USA IPA, Central NY and Southern Tier Orchid Societies [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.paphiopedilum.net Http://www.geocities.com/charlesufford _______________________________________________ the OrchidGuide Digest (OGD) orchids@orchidguide.com http://orchidguide.com/mailman/listinfo/orchids_orchidguide.com
