Has Mt Gox not enabled new accounts (can only log into status page(s))?

I created my account a day or two after the hack.  I've been able to log in and see the status page, etc...

But now, the site is telling me that my username or password is invalid.

They're not ... or at least shouldn't be.

EDIT:  and the password recovery page is offline/unavailable.

you created a new account after the hack??

how should that have worked?

Well, here's what I know:

1.  The site let me create an account. 
2.  It sent me email confirmation as such. 
3.  I've been able to log in and see the status page

It seems as thought I can still log into the status page, but NOT into the main site.

Why didn't they just disable the ability to create a new account?
