Hackers! The Final Wishes of a Ufologist Depend on YOU!

OK, as some of you might know, a friend of mine died last week. His name was Bob Pratt, and (among other things) he studied UFOs in Brazil.

He has a website, http://www.bobpratt.org.

I've volunteered to edit it so that his obituary is on the front page. Here's the thing: I have what I think is his password, and I think I know the hosting company (Yahoo! Small Business), but I don't know his username.

The Yahoo! Small Business people have been less than helpful -- just finding a space to write to them is nearly impossible, and they haven't responded to my inquiry at all.

So I'm wondering how I can get into the site.

Any ideas?

It's an extremely outside chance, but given that the contact email address is "ufos@bobpratt.org" you might try "ufos". Apart from that, it's probably going to be a bit of a guessing game unless you have access to his personal computer.

That's what I was afraid of.

I tried doing the WHOIS thing to confirm that the host is who I think it is and couldn't figure out what the result meant. (whois.melbourneit? what?)

Maybe I can get in Bob's house this weekend....
