I had similar problems soo ... since I did not have a password before. As I remember there are two ways to modify the password. One is http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/edit_email_form.php and the other is http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/edit_passwd_form.php I do not remember which one I used to make it work, but I finally I convinced the application to talk with the servers :-) Maybe you just try both?

Simon, BOINC uses two different things as 'passwords'. One is a password that you make up yourself, and the other is an 'Account key' issued by the project. Which of these are you using?
