Chemar is right, Iain, the system may just have timed out as you composed your post. Immediately to the right of your login entry is a check box for Remember Me, and if you select it your initial dissappointment may be overcome. Give it a try. Goodness, this community is well worth a try. I have found SO much by way of support and information within the threads I hit. How about it? Are you still about?
