As above?
Dont really know the first thing about computers (switch 'em on, and thats about it!)
Can't use the Search on my computer at home as it says my Cookies are not enabled, but i can use it on the PC at work?
Probably something really simple - but as i said, me and computers just don't get on yet!

Make sure your User name is the same as when you first registered ie it's case sensitive.
If this doesn't work then get a new password and try again. I had the same problem and this sorted it

Just click on the lost password icon on the login screen and enter your e-mail address. A new password will be sent. make sure your username is correct ensuring the correct case is used and then enter the new password.
This should solve your problem
good luck
