Getting the password back for a very old account (circa '99)

I used to have an account on here, and indeed the entries for this still exist. The account was circa 1999, and I stopped using it a long time ago, but I am hoping to reactivate it after stumbling on this again.

I know the email address it was registered to, but unfortunatly that doesnt really help as the password retereval form wont get passwords that are pre BBC. (And that particular password is long dead and buried, the '99 key book was turned into a small pile of ashes years ago.)

Any ideas?

If you email [email protected] with your old U number if you have it, and the email address that it was registered under, they should be able to help you. smiley - ok
