Registration Required

I've tried to read two stories in the past two days from sites that require registration, one from the Chicago Tribune, the other from the Lost Angeles Times. These are both Tribune Company papers, and share their backend. I can't read the stories because I haven't activated my registration yet. I haven't activated my registration yet because I haven't received the e-mail containing the instructions to activate the registration. I haven't received the e-mail because no e-mail was sent. No e-mail was sent because I was already registered.

The help says

# If that doesn't work, log in with the username and password you chose during the registration process and click the link that says, "Please click here to activate your account."

Except that link doesn't exist. Helpful, no? Could somebody apply for this Quality Assurance position they have open in Chicago?

If they are like other companies, the Lead System Administrator for the Hartford Courant will fix the problem. Oh, wait, that needs to be filled too.
