    Follow that tutorial... Buttercup is not THE only one who can reset passwords! I recommend reading and following that tutorial.

    I would not post my email address on a PUBLIC forum. I removed the email addresses from your first post for your safety.

    Hi,

    If you'd like I could send you a new password? Maybe you made an error in changing your password. Would this help?
