Thank you all for the very helpful advice. Apparently I need new passwords for all my websites since this is a new computer. Old password + new 'puter ID = no access! Or so it would seem. | I'm working on that now. Hopefully the problem will be solved within the next 24 hours. Sharon In a message dated 9/12/2010 6:10:49 A.M.

Remember your password is case sensitive, and don't include any whitespace if you copy and paste. The other possibility is that the security settings on your new computer are preventing the transfer of your login info to the server. Check your firewall settings to be sure your FTP program is authorized to connect to the internet.
