Yoono will not let me sign in anymore

I have had a Yoono account for over a year. I had to reinstall my OS due to problems. After I install Yoono again I went to login and it said " Login must be composed of letters, digits, dash, underscore and dot only. " my user name has exclamation points in it and always has. Was there a change??? and if so why wasn't I notify??? All of my bookmarks are on the Yoono servers. I ask of an email to see if I was putting in the wrong name & it the same user name & password I have always used. I can get a change or can I do it or can one of you do it or what?? I'm really frustrated....HELP ME PLEASE!!! Thank You.

    Hi Keenen,

    I've got a quick and dirty solution (assuming you use firefox) :
    - Type "about:config" in the url box.
    - once on the about:config page, search for the key "extensions.yoono.userid"
    - one line should appear with the "extensions.yoono.userid" option. Double click on this line to change its value and type your_login:your_password. Replace your_login and your password by the one send you by email. Don't forget the colon between your login and your password (for example it can be keenen:12345)
    - click ok. The new value should be set.
    - and finally restart firefox. You should be signed in at this stage.

    Note : once signed in, you can click on the yoono button, go to the "more" menu and go to the "change my password" submenu. You can fill a new password with authorized characters there.

    Second note : If your goal is to synchronize your bookmarks, go to the firefox's bookmark menu, then go to yoono menu, and click on the "share & unshare bookmarks" menu. A window will appear and you'll be able to re-activate synchronisation.

    Hope it's help.
