It could be that your email providers have auto deleted the email (thus it would never even show up in your inbox/spam folder) since they thought it was spam, based solely on the IP address block of where it came from. The verification email is sent from a different server than the forum one, thus different IP, which could explain why it may never get through to you. What email provider did you use to register an account with? (MSN, yahoo, gmail, etc etc.) I know gmail works, so if you would like, I could send you an invite and you could make a gmail account and try registering under that to see if that fixes it.
