Worse than that, it's been broken since before Thanksgiving and they
sent no error messages or anything! I had been trying really hard to
make changes during the holidays and no one there (even by telephone)
would tell me why my authentication was failing.

Another typical crock with this "service" provider. *sigh*

(Yeah, it frosted me; I spent a *ton* of time trying to get those
changes in!)
