Hello Jack,

If you have not already sorted this problem, then you can use METHOD THREE in this tutorial to reset your password so you can gain access again.

I'll always be online at the forum sooner or later, so you can post any question that you may have. Afterwards, just send me a PM with a link to it, and I'll see what I can do to help.
