To Greg: still blocked even when recovering and using the registered password. Been a player for 17 years and never had this happen before. It appears to be some sort of hack job! I have no idea how to fix it...hate to lose my chess buddies.

Looks like your password was changed recently. It's the same as it was before, but with 44 added to the end of it.

Hi John!

A couple of us were wondering about you, old chum. It's not like you to vanish for so long.

I was concerned especially because of the horrible ice-storm(s) that you had down east! As a matter of fact, I was going to send you an email yesterday, prior to seeing your other post in the Forum. Knowing you're okay, and what the problem is/was is a relief.

I was going to send an email to the other players in the ABC 2016 Tournament, and let them know what was going on, but now that I see Greg has (hopefully) discovered the problem, I'll wait a day or two to see if you can get back to the games as Johnb.

Glad to see you're not an ice-cube, old buddy!
Regards to Peggy, and see you soon!

Thanks Cliff. I tried Greg's 'solution' several times...to no avail. Like I said on my second post...it looks like some sort of hack job. I'm stymied. Any way, for now I'm johnbw.
Hope things are good with you...John.

To Greg: I changed it when the other one wouldn't let me in under my original name (johnb). Stiill didn't work so I changed my name to johnbw and rejoined. Starting from scratch after all my years as johnb. Not happy!

The password is the old one with 44 and a space appended.

I used the new password and got in ,but when I send my move a login page comes up.

I can login as johnb with my new password, make a move but when I press send I get a page that asks me to login. Have I been hacked?

No, somethings up with your browser. You can try deleting your cookies, try a different computer or browser.

Hi Greg. I've tried the 3 possible solutions that you suggested with no success. I am able to access my game page but when I press 'send' a page that says "please use the following form to login" comes up and around I go again to no avail. I feel quite disappointed as I've played 3572 games since the year 1999 and made some very nice chess friends.
Just wondering, have you run into a problem like this before?
Best, John
