I just followed the steps, but I'm getting a "Bad login." message when I try to sign in using Chrome's incognito mode. How long before the new username/password combo works?

#13Offtopic, but I used to think that too until a coworker I'd never met emailed me using that address, warning me that apparently the proxy had cached my view of my profile page and he was able to view it. Has this been fixed yet?

What's funny to me is how many sites rushed to be OpenID providers, but there were not very many consumers. I tried counting once but I lost count at 15 OpenID accounts that I have from various sites. So much for single sign-on.

It should work immediately. So either you mistyped something or incognito mode does something that breaks login.

Whatever you do, there will always be a non-trivial number of ISPs and company networks that have misconfigured proxies that overzealously cache sensitive data and display to everyone with not a care in the world.
