Next, an email will be sent to you with a link. Open that email and click on the link to verify your email address. (NOTE: Check your JUNK/SPAM email box if you don't see an email after a minute.)
After clicking on the link, another email will be sent to you with your Username and Temporary Password. Below your Temporary Password will be a "Please Login Here" link. Click that link and a new webpage will open.
Copy and Paste your Temporary Password into the "Current Password" box. Be sure not to copy any spaces before or after the Temporary Password that was emailed to you.
