Try clearing the cache and deleting cookies for the site that you are trying to log into, this can sometimes help with accessing a site that previously worked. For details see how to clear the cache and deleting cookies.

If that does not help you should contact the support/customer services for the site to make sure that there is no problem with the site or your login details.
