SOS Help with logins - Raven for hire?

whenever you try to login as a regular user it DOESN'T log you in. Instead it just redirects you to your profile, as if you had clicked on it through forums while not being logged in. (know what I'm talkin about? good)

However, if you type your password incorrectly, it WONT do that but will load the domain/modules.php?name=Your_Account&stop=1

and ask you to retype login/pass.

my site is
http://www.wowcentral.com

here's a dummy account you can try to login with.

user: fruitymcfadden
pass: nuke12cops

First, try with password, then second time try with any password if you can't understand what I mean.

My site is on windows hosting. I also had a version running on my local system which is XP Pro SP2.

The site does NOT have the problem on my box, but it does on the host. This site used to be running on 6.x and recently had a nukecops member upgrade the site to 7.5. All the files are freshly unzipped and I downloaded them from this site.

A WHILE ago, I decided to convert myself from phpnuke 6x to cpgnuke, after getting everything all setup, I came accross the same problem with that. So, I abandonded it and came back to phpnuke, after getting all setup again, this is quite frustrating.

I'm really desperate for help and phpnuke forums seem to be clueless.

Yes, and actually, it's solved now... Here's the answer

- -
Open modules/Your_Account/index.php:

replace: Header("Location: modules.php
with: Header("Refresh: 0;url=modules.php
- -

I've seen several comments on this solution. And that it didn't work.
I know! I was one of them.

BUT!
This line is in there 12 times! Duh!
After replacing ALL of the lines it worked.
