WordPress having problems?

    I’ve been getting an unusual amount of spam comments lately, and just today after receiving e-mail about yet another spam comment, I tried to log in to my blog, but it says incorrect login/password. Thinking I may have typed in the wrong password, I tried to retrieve it, but it says it can’t send to me with this message:

    “The e-mail could not be sent.
    Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…”

    After a couple tries, it was still giving me the message, but for some reason I could get into my dashboard again. I tried to add the e-mails to the block comments list, but when I went to check out some other options, the cycle was washed, rinsed, and repeated.

    Is there a problem currently with wordpress going on?

    While logged out of wordpress, clear your browser cache and cookies and restart your browser. You might want to do that a couple times if you are using Internet Explorer. Then try logging in again.
