Change Password

So I flew to Ottawa and Julia picked me up at the airport.  I was going to be staying with Julia for the week and sleeping in Julia husband's bed and he was going to stay with his mother.  So I arrived late Wednesday night and went in to work on Thursday morning.  The first thing I had to do was activate my computer email account.  They had given me a user name and a initial password that would work the first time I tried to logon.  But the first thing I had to do was change my password.  So I borrowed Stan's computer and used my username and password to logon and pushed the button at the bottom of the screen which took me to a page to change my password and then confirm my changed password.  Then I hit the button at the bottom of the screen and it brought me back to the logon page.  I tried to logon with my new password and it didn't work.  I tried a few times and it didn't work.  So I tried the original password they gave me and I got in to the page to change my password again.  I changed my password to something more complicated because I thought maybe my new password wasn't complicated enough and confirmed it and pushed the button at the bottom of the screen.  I was sent back to the logon page and tried my new password and it didn't work again.  I tried a number of times and then tried the original password again and got the change password screen again.  I repeated this a number of times.  And I asked the people there what I was doing wrong.  So the next time I changed my password, I was going to hit the button at the bottom of the screen and the person looking over my shoulder screamed NOOOO!  Just hit Return!  Then I realized that the button at the bottom of the screen was "Cancel" even though it was the only button to push.  When I hit Return it finally worked.
