    Your initial password is as follows #fmlMMDDYYYY. The password begins with the # symbol. "fml" is the first/middle/last initials of the person's name. "MMDDYYYY" is the person's date of birth in month/day/year format (including zeros; i.e. "06072006").

Issues with WINDOWS VISTA

Nichols College Information Technology is currently testing the compatability of current Nichols software on a Windows Vista system. To this date, we are aware of two issues, which are directly related to the new security features of the Vista version of Internet Explorer 7:

Problem:

Nichols Email - you will not be able to compose or reply to any emails
WebAdvisor - you will not be able to access WebAdvisor
Resolution: Install a different browser, such as

       Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/)
       Netscape (http://browser.netscape.com/ns8/)

IT will continue to research Windows Vista and will let you know of any other issues.
