Gaucho, did you check other forums on the Travel boards? Can you post to Travel Buzz, for example?
I had the same problem after changing my password - I changed it from the Miles boards and then I couldn't post anywhere on the Travel boards. If I changed it from the Travel boards, I then couldn't post anywhere from the Miles boards.
It all came down to a question of bad cookies and my browser.

Try resetting your FT cookies, like blair suggests; how we run multiple installs of UBB like we do causes some weird side-effects with cookies sometimes. I checked your OMNI access and it says you still have it.
To clear out and reset your FlyerTalk cookies, go to the Preferences link in each major board:
Miles: http://www.flyertalk.com/forumcgi/ub...ction=setprefs
Travel: http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...ction=setprefs
Dining: http://www.flyertalk.com/dining/ftdi...ction=setprefs
Airports: http://www.flyertalk.com/airports/ft...ction=setprefs
As for your Hotmail account access, as I'm assuming you're referring to how you can't login to it, you'll need to get with Hotmail about that. If someone did get your password from earlier, and it's the same one you use with Hotmail, it's possible they got in that way.

As for Hotmail, many Microsoft servers have been attacked in the past days by the Mydoom virus, MSN Messenger servers were unreachable last night for a lot of people as were many of the hotmail servers.
