An alternative to buying your first BitCoins is to earn them via this site. iWantFreeBitCoins.com Good chance to get some BitCoins and see what its all about before you go through all the trouble of getting a market account setup.
Just an idea.

A friend told me about bitcoins the other day and i've just spent the last 2 hours trying to set it up. I signed up on God knows how many websites, and now I'm trying to use KIVs GUI miner with Slush's pool, I have a working account on Slush's website but the GUI can't log me in, I have put in my username and password, but keeps erring log in and trying every 120 seconds. Help?
