> When I go into RinkChat, I can't have a space in my name, so I've got to go in as "Faux_Pas". When I post on the Message Forum, I post as "Faux Pas". I'm assuming IE recognizes the same names for the fields ("name" and "name"), so whenever I start to type "Faux Pas", I get a drop-down box with both "Faux Pas" and "Faux_Pas" in it. Sometimes, when I'm going too fast, I choose the incorrect one.

And that, folks, is why I do not use that feature known as "auto complete." On a related note, I hate it when I mistype URLs. For example, I once left out the 'w' in my haste to get to Rinkworks. Until I cleared my history, my browser thought that I wanted to go to rinkorks.com instead of rinkworks.com, because it comes first in the alphabet. I guess this proves, once again, that a computer is only as smart as the person using it.
