    Are you signing in with your primary username? It would be the first one mentioned here.

    If you already are, can you access other parts of Cox.net like the data usage meter? If not, I would suggest contacting Cox directly to have your account looked at. Sometimes if you move or change account numbers for some reason, the email is not properly attached to your account. 

    PS. Do you have any signs of malware? If so, downloading Cox Security Suite won't help. Also, if you need immediate protection, you may consider other free options like AVG, Avast, or Avira. Reply if you would like more info.
