Hi again Pamela. I can't think of any reason for this particular problem but I am still waiting to hear from the Administrator. It really should be a straightforward process. When you first get to the site you should be presented with a screen that has two options at the top. Login or RegisterNot necessarily those colours of course. You should be able to click on Register and then follow the prompts until Registration is completed. Sometime soon after that you should receive an email with your Activcation Code and instructions for activation. Then it is a matter of following those instructions and entering the Activation Code and you should be right. Please keep me informed each time you try until we find the solution. In the meantime - if you have any particular queries you can contact me via email - cornishterrier@optusnet.com.au - and I will see if I can help you offline until we get sorted. Regards, CT

Problem Solved! ;D
A CAPTCHA is a program that can grade tests that a human can pass but current computer programs can't.
Occasionally you will try to log in to a site or register with a site that is secure - such as online banking for example.
You will be presented with a box that contains a jumble of alpha-numeric characters and you will be asked to type the contents of that box into a response box.
Unless you type in the characters (could be combination of letters and numbers) exactly then you will not gain access.
These characters are random and usually presented in a jumbled facshion - for example in a wave pattern.
I know some can be very difficult to decipher especially if the background interferes but you can usually also initiate a different code.

Hi
Sorry for the delay in response
I can only agree with what Ian has already stated - id there is CAPTCHA being used it is imperative that you replicate exactly what it asks you to type, that could a mixture of upper case, lower case and/or numbers.
I will try creating a new account to see what happens.
