  I’m trying to import my LiveJournal blog using the importer tool, but it just keeps telling me that my password isn’t accepted. I’ve typed and re-typed it and even copy-pasted it. I’ve even logged out and then logged back into LJ to make sure. I’m certain it’s the correct username and password. But I can’t log in.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
