I assume this is only in the 2.0.X versions?

Just for 2.0.18.x and 2.3 but I cannot be 100% sure.

Can you tell me ..should we be putting this hack in our code?
I noticed this happening but dismissed it as Firefox goofing up and filling my name in the wrong field.

This hack is harmless and you can add it to your code.
I´m not 100% sure this will solve the bug because I was not able to reproduce it.

If anyone(you for example) can reproduce it in your site, then please make a test. Apply this hack and report back if it solved the problem. Thanks.

Well, it didn't solve it - we had it again today. Actually, I can reproduce it now constantly:

1) click on user link (e.g. in posted message in newbb)
2) click on Edit Profile

The name of the Admin doing the edit will be inserted into "Interests" field.

EDIT: it was consistently on Google Chrome, but I can't reproduce it on Firefox 3.01 and not on IE 7. This is strange!

Yes, but you'll need Google Chrome for it. At least there is one benefit of this new browser

This is happening in preferences->mail to. The only way I can partially solve this is using javascript as in this article:

Interesting. I had this happen on a recent site I created locally and then uploaded to host. It's been driving me nuts because I cannot get rid of my name from the user's profile. Thank you for tracking this down!

Once bug is fixed, I presume the bad data will still be in the profiles?

Could you specify what happens there?

Are you now saying that this is a browser problem? I find it hard to believe that. I could imagine that some nifty auto complete browser settings would fill in some fields, but not that fields (from different naming) get mixed.
