Firstly, you have written your request to a public Mailing List. All emails sent to this list are sent out to thousands of volunteers of which i am but one. Also the list emails are kept in a public, online database and are visible to the whole online world. Therefore sending your username and password in this way was not the smartest thing you have done this week. Never give your password to anyone, even tech support at your ISP should not want to know your password which gives you internet access. If you have issues they can get the computer to send you a new one via email. One reason that you may have had issues is the length of the web address (URL) that you had to click on to go to the confirmation web page. On my email program it was long enough that some of it was on the next line down. You need to ensure that the complete URL (without spaces or linebreaks) is correct in the browser address bar before going to the web page. The missing bit on the second line is part of teh code that helps identify you to the web server. Now your second problem that you created by sending your details. Do you want the world to know your details (with or without password)? * If you don't care then you could continue the confirmation step using the info above, and then login and change your password. Time is of the essence here as someone may do this pretending to be you now they have your details. Why, i don't know, but someone may. * Alternately, if you wish, you could start the whole process again. And advise the forum maintainer that the account with the details you have shared with the world is not being used and request it be deleted. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
