 * If you use Firefox and have used the admin password in Firefox, look in Tools(
   or Edit) > Preferences > Security and click the Show Passwords button. The list
   of passwords should include the one for your site. Assuming you told Firefox 
   to save it, of course.
 * Alternatively, click the forgotten password link on the login page and have it
   emailed to you.

 * I have had an issue trying to recover my password. when I request to reset my
   password, I receive an email with a keycode link…I press that link and it states
   I will receive another email with my “new” password. I never get the second email.
   I try the process again and then I do not get the 1st email with the keycode.
 * I waited 24 hrs to try again and exact same results.
 * what am I doing wrong?

   how to solve the problem.
