This is a known issue.

As a workaround, you have to delete your cookie for anidb.ath.cx. (If you don't know how to do that, please tell us which browser and OS you use)

Firefox? Great, it's easy then (- at least much easier than for IE ^^):
Go to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Cookies and click on "Stored Cookies". There you can delete the two cookies "adbautouser" and "adbautopass" from anidb.ath.cx.

Then, you should be able to properly login again.

Install Firefox?

Ah well, for IE it's a bit more complicated.
1) (In IE,) go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Settings (next to "Remove files...") -> Show files
2) (I'd suggest to sort the files by their type, then) locate the file "Cookie:(your windows-username)@anidb.ath.cx" and delete it

Another way is to use the following link:
http://anidb.ath.cx/perl-bin/animedb.pl?xuser=YOUR_USERNAME&xpass=YOUR_PASSWORD&xdoautologin=1
Of course, you have to enter the correct values for YOUR_USERNAME and YOUR_PASSWORD.
