Sandie, maybe try logging out of your usual account and then trying it?  Not sure if that would work, but it's worth a shot.

Worked for me from UK. I clicked on the link, then had to enter my normal user name and password to log on as 'guest'. I only looked at a few records, so don't know how long my access would last!
