I have had exactly the same problem as you.  I set-up my account
yesterday, via my Demon account using Netscape 4.  Last night
everything worked fine via the Freeserve number and I could access the
WWW etc.

Today when I log in to check my e-mail, I get an error message saying
that the password is wrong.  What's happened?
