why can I log on website, but not SL? same pwd logs onto website but says wrong pwd when log in2 SL

[Morph Lupindo]

I changed my password yesterday. I was able to log on to the website and to SL last night and this morning with the new password. now, I can log onto the website, but when trying to connect to SL I get: login failed. sorry! we couldn't log you in. Pls check to make sure you entered the right username and password.

something else I just noticed, on the web page where it asks you what email address you want IMs to be sent, it's telling me the new password is also incorrect for my mail account.

Regarding not being able to log into the viewer with the same new password you're using to log into the website, for some unknown reason it can take up to 24 hours for the new password to take effect within the viewer. Have you tried logging into the viewer on your previous password?  Try it and come back and tell us what happens?
