That happens to me too, Mnkyface. When I type in a user name and password, the box disappears for a second or two and then it just reappears as if I hadn't typed in anything.

Just to let everyone know
I ordered the CD/DVD yesterday and contacted them this morning to see if I was automatically entered in the contest.
Here is the reply:
Hello and thank you for your email. Unfortunately the sweepstakes ended on October 7th so since you placed your order after that date you were not automatically entered for the drawing. I apologize for this inconvenience.

Please let us know if we can further assist you in any way. Thanks for your support and have a great day!

Regards,

Emily
