Your iLok account shows the license installed on your iLok. It's the same ilok User ID that you entered when you registered today.

I had this exact problem a few months ago.
Try this
Create a new admin user
delete ILM
download & Install new ilok drivers (even if you just did it do it again)
Download & Install new ILM
Log on to your ilok account.
FWIW - you should name your ilok exact what your user id is that way you will never forget it too...

Don't know if will help you but it fixed me up.

I'm not sure you are logging into the correct iLok account. It looks like you created an account and activated Pro Tools Express on that account in July.
