I'll have to check the password file online, but I can't access it either at the moment...
that email is just a forwarder, but it is active. I'll give the reset a try

My only concern, however, is it looks like your host often has downtime issues or at least issues with the db. Or at least the CBL forums seem to go down every once in awhile. Is that something completely different or is that something the IOLD would probably experience too? The one good thing about where the IOLD is now is that the server has been exceedingly stable for a long time and if someone tries to access it but can't they may, unlike more popular sites, never try to again.
The cbl forum issue is related to that specific DB. i went through and repaired the DB and it seems ok now but over time the issue will probably come back, but it's an issue with the version of phpbb2 they are using. I haved strongly suggested that they upgrade the forum software to phpbb3 (or even the latest version of 2 may help) as i havn't have any problems with my forum, or my other websites, but i can't force them to upgrade.

checking the corporate league site(s) for the next few days or so would be a good way to make sure that it's only an issue with the cbl forum before you spend much time thinking about it
