   Hi,

   I was hoping someone here could help me out with this rather annoying problem I have come across. Since I opened up my WordPress blog I have been automatically signed in on my computer. This has led to that I have forgot my username and password. I went through the coding for my wordpress blog and found where I have filled out my username and password but they do not work when I try to log in with them. I keep getting a "Sorry, this username does not exist in our database".

   In order to retrieve my password (by clicking on the "Forgot Password?" link) I have to fill out my username and email address, problem is; I don't know my username!

   Does anyone know what I can do to solve this problem? Is there some way for me to find my username or retrieve it? I desperately need your help because I am not able to access my blog at this time.

   Thank you,
   Christina

   Just curious, but..shouldn't the username be: admin ..?
