Where do I find the words: Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.
I need to add something like: 1, if you have trouble registering remove the www. from the browser bar and try again.
2, if you have problems logging in REMOVE www. from the browser address bar and try again.

Most likely, the text is held in the Language files in question.

Assuming you're interested in English, I'd open up the /language/english.php and search within that file for the text you're interested in editing.

Fairly straightforward stuff.

This is assuming you're just trying to edit Joomla core stuff. Components, like VirtueMart have their own language files, so in this example you'd look in: /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/languages/english.php

If you still cant' find the text, you can always just run a search on your local files - I use the Find feature within Dreamweaver to search a site.
