To admin, I need to change my email in my profile, but when I try to do so it says that the email is registered to another user. Strange thing is, is that I just created this address (at Excite.com) a few days ago. So its impossible for someone else to have it.

Actually that is not true.
Excite like Hotmail and the like periodically delete e-mail addresses that are no longer in use.
I believe that with Hotmail that happens after three months of a mailbox being inactive (nobody logging in to it).
So, although you created a new address, there is a possability that somebody had that address ages ago, Excite cleaned up the database and you then re-created it.

Although you have to ask what are the chances of you creating an e-mail that has been removed from their database that somebody else once owned who just happened to have used that address to register here - I'm sure somebody with a better mathmatical head on their shoudlers can tell me that one

Yeah the odds are insane and overall this sucks.

Please send me an email with details (e.g. your new email address) and I check it out.
