A suddenly changed password is one sign of that. If someone else repeatedly attempts to login and fails, I believe it will lock you out completely. I think the fact that you are able to reset your password and then login, without having to wait another day or so, shows that this is not what happened. (But I could be wrong.)

There are some reasons why that would happen -- having CapsLock stuck ON being one of them -- perhaps others too. When Gmail changed its login screen about a month ago, with separate username and password "screens", I have more trouble logging in now, because I start typing the password too early and the first few characters are lost. I was used to typing it all in fast, using the Tab key, and I miss that.

Yours is the only complaint about it that I've seen. That would tend to indicate that the problem might be unique to your computer, or (shall I say it) to the person in front of the computer, not something endemic to Google. At work, there is a computer I occasionally use, where I have one heck of a hard time logging in. The computer seems to skip keystrokes occasionally, and this seems to happen when logging in. But I can see it when I type my email address too. Stupid computer. Andy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Gmail-Users" group.
