a friend of mine wanted to register with Eagles__Code or Eagles_Code or EaglesCode or just Code on my forums and all these nicknames were "taken" when they really were not in the DB. whats up with this? he cannot have a username with the word Code in it. is this a bug or on purpose? if on purpose could u possibly tell me what lines to edit to allow that user name?

In the register.asp there is a line
If InStr(1, strUsername, "code", vbTextCompare) Then blnUsernameOK = False
Just comment it out. Be aware thought that it is there for a reason. Security.
