have you tried doing it in upper case or doesn't it make any difference?

Sorry I was just off to bed when I saw your thread.
I think it is a cheek!

Don't think anybody's nicked the names - it's just one of these lovely glitches. Add a 1 or something to your name to make it slightly different, that should sort it!
