Dear Sun Managers, thanks for all your detailed instructions. The
trouble has been solved and a major embarrassment is avoided. Some
also suggested me in the future to choose easy to remember and
hard to guess password and never to write down password on a piece
of paper. Since the solution concerns the safety of internet
community, I will not post the detailed instructions here. But, in
case any of you get into the same trouble, please drop me a line,
I would be more than happy to help (I am sort of an expert on
this now, stupid, but :-) -andy

Many thanks to (mail are still comeing in, sorry if I fail to
include all my friends here):
