Jeff, thanks for the prompt reply.

I tried to log in to random screen names with the wrong password not to get access but to see if the screen name was still in use. If I get the message, "The screen name or password you entered is not valid" I am assuming (hopefully correctly) that the screen name is in the 6 months waiting list so that I can get it. What I am trying to do is the equivilant to squating domains. I changed my password on a screen name late at night and in the morning forgot it (didnt write it down or anything). I registered the screen name with a Juno email address when Juno was sending people floppies in the mail and you had to dialup to retrieve the email. I am guessing it was 7-8 years ago when I used that email address. I tried to reregister the Juno email address but I get error messages.

Is there any way of knowing when the 6 months is over so I can register a dropped screen name?
