Problems logging in / Incorrect password

Bookmark and Share
After some failed attempts (from a forum which is not important enough to mention here) which tried to hack several users accounts in a moment of pettiness, we have upped our security and added another layer of protection to every users accounts.

You may be faced with the message Incorrect password. Fear not, simply clear/delete your internet cookies/cache then relogin with the exact username/password as before.

Sorry for the inconvenience but im sure you will all agree that it was precaution that needed to be put into place.

Update: If the above instruction did not work for you, please install and run CCleaner. And if that does not fix the login problem add one of the admins on MSN: 3ch0fw@live.com. Good luck.
