I tried to make purchase, but it never went through - I think the vendor is out of business...
Now I get this message whenever I try to log in: You've been inactive for a while, so we logged you out to help protect your account. Please return to the merchant and restart the payment process.
The only way I can get into my account is to find an email from paypal and click the link that's in there.
