POSSIBLE WORK-AROUND
This might be coincidence, but I doubt it -- it is in keeping with the assumption that there is something mucked up on the B&N servers
1) Change your password online.
2) Wait an hour (don't know if needed, but this is what I did)
(yes, I did try to log onto Desktop Reader at this point, but could not)
3) Unregister your Nook
4) Re-Register your Nook
5) Log onto Desktop Reader with new password.
6) Desktop Reader now logs on.
I suspect it will eventually be found that this problem only occurs to folks who use both the Nook and Desktop Reader version 2.1.1.1, not all, but some.
I am curious if this corrects the problem for the other poster.
There is also the remote possibility that B&N fixed the problem while I was walking through the above steps.
There remains the problem that Email Support, instead of trying to work with the customer, took the easy way out at the expense of the customer. Bad support is beginning to be the swan song of the Nook. I hope B&N doesn't kill the Nook. I do think it is the best ereader on the market. But their Customer Service has some seriously weak links. (Josh on the B&N forums specifically excluded)
