Subject: Problem activating account

Greetings;

  Since it appears that the BOINC-S@h implementation is settling
down and the termination of Classic is therefore approacing, I
decided to go ahead and activate my account under BOINC, just to
be ready.

  No problem with getting the account ID sent to me, but when I
typed it in and hit "activate", I got a page headed "Please log in"
subtitled "This function requires that you log in." and prompting
for the account id again.

  Re-entering it just gets me the log in request again. I don't see
a FAQ page or anything for resolving problems, so can anyone tell
me a) why I have to "log in" just to activate an account, and
b) why it's in this endless loop?

  Thanks,


  Gary
