Ahh, I just found the problem...

This is the source of the output:

<td valign=top align=left>User               : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
</td>
Whoops...

Sorry guys.


The reason I'm having troubles with all this stuff is that it's all being
pulled out of a hard database using telnet.  Yeah, it's the only way, and
it's a downright pain.  Oh well.

Just stop using ereg_replace where not needed and use str_replace
instead - it's faster and you don't risk bumping into "key-chars" like
you just did. While regexps are very useful when needed, people tend to
use the same functions even when they don't need regexps just out of
habit... There, now I said it! :-)
