Help, cannot access or edit profile

[DITYIWAHP]

Please help.

I just generated a new profile and now find that my first post is a request for help so I can access and edit my profile. If I click on 'edit profile' or my login name then I just get the following on a denied access screen:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

DITYIWAHP, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to access a private forum, administrative features or some other privileged system?
2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
   
   If you have recently registered, you must first respond to a verification e-mail that we sent you.
   Please ensure your mail provider isn't 'helpfully' hiding our activation email in your junk/spam box!
   Please be sure to disable any spam filters you may have for our website by whitelisting our domain PPRuNe.org in your e-mail software options, so that all future messages can reach you.
   If you have lost this email, or it never arrived, please go here to request another activation email be sent to you.

If anyone can help then I would be much obliged.
