Hello,
I do not remember the password that I associated with this account. Luckily, my computer remembers me.

I tried to edit my password under the User CP area but I was not successful.

Can someone assist me with changing my password?

You entered your new password, then reentered it to confirm, then clicked Save Changes? Did you also put in your e-mail address?

I think the problem is that you need to enter your old password first in order to set a new one, and smh1024 is depending on a browser-saved password.

There is software that can recover passwords saved by your browser. Go to Nir Sofer's Password Recovery Tool page and download the right flavor. If you can handle the hack-it-yourself method, no need to go through a lor of fuss. :)
