thanks for your help guys the computer i had when i set up copey died and i no longer have the password for the email address i used one which i created exclusively for blogging and wiki activities i can probably delete that email address and resurrect it again with a new password it wasn't just the main page it was nearly all pages including ones i've edited in the past i seem to be continuing trouble free fingers crossed i may need to hang fire on the death and resurrection of the email address it's probably got stuff i need for this account
