Yes - you can't have @ signs in usernames (not sure how you managed it in NT
either...  they're certainly not possible in any version I've used).

I can stop it writing them, but you'll have to take the @ out manually from
existing ones (you can actually do this in notepad, as it doesn't change
the format of the file when it saves it).
