scooby, can you write down the email that you found corrupt?
I haven't heard anything like that before, like stripping a character in wwf v8.04. That was pretty stable version concerning to formatting characters. Then, there was nothing wrong like stripping a character in the WWF v8.04 scripts.
If it was not you, then it has to be something wrong with the character set encoding of the site and you have nothing to do with that.

when you corrected your email address did you change your password? or was it the same for the entire length of your account.
As it could be they had to restore the database back to an earlier time?

My password has had to be changed so many times I forget now if I changed it or not.
The administrator has has to remove my username and ' purge the database' (his words not mine) on more than one occassion
I have had four usernames..
Scoobie
Scoobiedoo
Scooby....and sometime later (as a back-up)....
Scooby2....this one was only used once shortly after registration then
the login problems also started with it and it was removed by the
administrator Recently, over the last few days, I have had no log-in problems....other than having to keep logging-in when the site logs me out unexpectedly over and over again.

Yes it was like this snobielo odbie@yahoo.co.uk the red highlighted character had been left out of the original registration entry by me but after a few days I corrected it, when I discovered that I had input it wrongly, whilst updating my avatar.

It sounds like cookie issues especially as you keep getting logged out.
Make sure that cookies are enabled in your browser. With version 8 cookies are updated quite often so do tend to sometime course cookie corruptions in IE. To fix it delete alltemporyt internet files then all cookies.
Upgrading the forum to the latest version should also help as cookies are not updated so often and there are new cookie handing functions which also improve things.
8.04 is quite old now and it is recommend that the forum be updated to the latest release 9.08. This latest release is a security release and it is recommended that ALL users upgrade to this version.

Thanks Bruce for that.
I regularly delete all temp files as part of my general housekeeping using CCleaner.
Of course cookies are enabled in both my browsers IE7 and FireFox and I can only repeat that AgeNet is the ONLY site that causes problems...all my other internet accounts requiring log-in protocol (and therefore cookies) work fine.
Thanks again for your help and advice

scooby, as i said, there might be something wrong at their end and i do not see a reason for you to worry.
Bruce is the dev of WWF and he knows better than me. But I am sure WWF v8 did not have any issue like stripping a char from email or any issue with oo (double o) formatting.
And the famous cookie problem, it's been history now :)

Thanks Stardust.....I will see if the problem continues and if it does then I will post again and tell you.
You are all very kind to concern yourselves with such trivia ... I am sure that you have far more important things to occupy your time !
