I use Thunderbird. For no reason it began asking for my password the other day. It will not accept my usual password. I deleted the password and restarted Thunderbird. It does not ask for a new password, just what is my old password. I was hoping it would ask me to set-up a new one. Any help would be appreciated.

I've previously seen the page you posted. I'm thinking about deleting the program from my computer and reinstalling. I don't want to lose my address book. Any thoughts?

About the least productive thing you could do it uninstall and reinstall. It is that simple.
