    I used to be Foxy, now I'm

    I've been locked out of my old ID, established 2002, for a few weeks, and this is the 3rd time I'm trying to get a new ID, because the confirmation emails never went out. I've lost my whole history :-( I know the forum is owned by a larger company. Do the PTB know it hasn't been fixed?

    This might seem minor, but I can't find the User Control Panel to make an avatar and signature. It used to be under the main VDR logo.

    Yes, I've read it, and a problem still persists. The login wouldn't accept the PW I set up for this new ID, and sent me a new one.

    I used your Foxy3 email address for your Foxy account and had the system send you a password reset email.

    It's much too short. I usually set my PW generator to 14 characters. But will I need a new one every visit? If I'm not back in 5 minutes, you'll know.

    I've been exiled to a strange land. I had to post the Q about my puter on Bleepingcomputer.com yesterday, and no one has answered it. :-(

    New PW works twice in a row.

    I was at my vet a few months ago, cat was very sick, and I told the secretary to check her medical history in the records. She said "Oh, we keep them for only 4 years." But the average cat lives 18-21 years and dogs 12-15(? not sure. Not a dog owner.) Maybe IT Business Edge is culling out its oldest members You don't know how many are knocking on the door and can't get in.

    I will now go post my Q on the forums.

    I am Foxy4.

    System no longer recognizes registration of Foxy3, asks me to register.

    Original Foxy can log in, but if I try to post or send you a PM, I get:

    foxy, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
    Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.


    There are very few sites where I would go through this much bother to get in, but I've used up all 5 of my email accounts. (3 of them funnel into my main account.)

    There's still a problem here.

    There have been a few recently due to some forum software updates.

    VirtualDr email notices are not working.
    Check back regularly for responses.

    Foxy - for security's sake, we reset everyone's password. Several people like yourself didn't get the email that was sent. Your ISP is blocking emails from VirtualDr.
