XP struck by lightning/New computer/Windows 7 -How to transfer

Apologies for what may seem straightforward to those here, but was without computer for a whole month (after my XP got struck by lightning)... so having finally got my new Windows 7, I have to get my Norton's back. :smileysad: 

What seems to have occurred in the process is that the name (email address) on my original modem had to be used in order just to get online, and now - with 4 months left on my Norton's subscription with my most recent email address...it isn't accepting me to re-download on new computer.

(I have my Norton 'key' but can't get 'in' 'cos it isn't accepting my email address and password.  May seem obvious to you, but I'm in a dither!).

 

Would very much appreciate any assistance.

 

Thankyou.
