All is well in Blogdom again

I woke up this morning to find I couldnt log into my Movable Type. Of course, I went into a panic. First I thought I had screwed something up in the settings when I last posted. Then I thought maybe since I hadnt had my cafe cubano that I had forgotten my password. I tried the recover password thing and nada. Maybe I didnt know where I was born? After that I was absolutely certain I'd been hacked. Someone had gotten into my MT and changed the users!

I began a barrage of emails to fellow bloggers that have helped me with these applications before. No response (It's early yet, I thought).

I went to the MT page and after travelling thru a maze of FAQ's I found the support forum and posted a frantic call for help. Seems this had happened to other bloggers as well.

Apparently, it was not an MT problem and I was told to contact my host. I did. They responded quickly. I told them the problem. Yes, some changes were made, they said, but you should be able still to log in to MT. I tried again and nada. Back to host support, I tell them "Nada." Be right back, they said. Then they came back, "try it again." I try again and *poof*, Im in!

Apparently, it was only a matter of adding the "www" to some string somewhere.

Heh.
