Richard, everytime I try to click onto the noticeboard (and indeed when I click on the reply with quote function) from the main site I get this:-
Server Error in '/' Application.

A potentially dangerous Request.Cookies value was detected from the client (userInfo="USERNAME=...").
Description: Request Validation has detected a potentially dangerous client input value, and processing of the request has been aborted. This value may indicate an attempt to compromise the security of your application, such as a cross-site scripting attack. You can disable request validation by setting validateRequest=false in the Page directive or in the configuration section. However, it is strongly recommended that your application explicitly check all inputs in this case.

Worked it out Danno - well partly anyway. You have remove the html tag in your username and revert to just the plain version. At least thats what I did.
