Good Morning, I have a troublesome question - I tried to change the Administrator password to ForumAdmin - It says I can't as their already exist a user named ForumAdmin - I did a search on ForumAdmin and no such name exists.
Does this seem odd to anyone or am I being paraniod?

its because admin is a reserved word, and it returns as already existing if the reserved word is entered |

Sorry - I am not sure I understand that. If I can change the administrator name to admin, then why not admin to forum admin? - maybe I don't undertant what you mean by reserved?  wolf |
