Look for the following code in inc_header.asp (lines 164-170):
strDBNTUserName = Request.Cookies(strUniqueID & "User")("Name")
strDBNTFUserName = trim(chkString(Request.Form("Name"),"SQLString"))
if strDBNTFUserName = "" then strDBNTFUserName = trim(chkString(Request.Form("User"),"SQLString"))
if strAuthType = "nt" then
	strDBNTUserName = Session(strCookieURL & "userID")
	strDBNTFUserName = Session(strCookieURL & "userID")
end if

That's where strDBNTUserName is defined.
Put the code right after it (sForumNavigation() is called in line 292 FYI).

I don't think you need to do that unless you're using a language other than English? Could be wrong.

Although I don't know if it is required for the MOD to work, here are the instructions from the PM readme file:
Language Files and Internationalization information 

This example uses the LangMODS_Ls3kAU4_1033.asp to show where to add the code. 

Find the following (about line #119):
.
.
.

So, all the info is there; I'm just wondering why there are instructions to add the code to the Active Users language file?!?

when it says: Goto your Admin Options and then click on "MOD Setup".
There are 2 options in the drop down box:

Private Messages Mod (Default) <-- All users should try this one first

Private Messages Mod for Access97 Connectstring.

i chose the (Default) one, BUT...
was i suppose have the box checked when i hit update or not?

and btw...how the hell do i run "Check Installation"???

If you want to have the dbs file deleted after you did the database update, the check the box. This way you can prevent choosing the dbs file from the dropdown box again (which could cause problems).

You either go to Admin Options and look the line right under "MOD Setup" - there's "Check Installation"
Or you could just run setup.asp in your forum folder.

LinkinMODE101, I understand you might be frustrated trying to install a MOD. Or perhaps this is normal speech for you. However, some of us find the language and tone a little inappropriate and will tend not to want to help if you talk that way.
