Could be because your email address isn't the standard .com type, and the people that wrote the code that checks the email address didn't account for anything more complex.
Poorly written sites can't handle these kind of address:
my.name@foo.com - the period in the first part
name@foo.co.uk - non .com in the domain
my_name@mail.foo.com - could be the underscore, could be the sub-domain of mail.

As it seems that several sites reported your id as invalid, that means you are making some mistake. An valid email id should be like this loginid@serviceprovider, e.g. abc@yahoo.com where abc is your id and yahoo.com is the service provider.

Pop up blockers and some firewalls can do this. I'm not fluent with computers, but this has happened to me in the past. Check in their individual settings.
