I have tried to long on with the information contained here, and it rejects
me. I copied and pasted the password. Just to make sure I am logging in
right, I clicked on the FTP Hostname link, then in the upper right corner,
where it says sign in to Rootsweb.com I clicked on "signin", supplied the
information below and it gives me:

*Member name and/or password are invalid

Help!!
