I don't have either of those symbols in my password and didn't have them in the previous password. Just checked my email and have a message that says the reset code was cancelled and to click here to begin the reset process again.
I don't think it is too lengthy otherwise I wouldn't be able to remember it. Of course I know all about writing them down but who wants to look them up when you log in. LOL Trust me on clicking that *log in* button. I'm surprised I still have a button to click. I was pretty upset about this whole thing in the 1st place and now that I've walked away for awhile I can calmly try this again without trying to break something, like a log in button.
