    Sorry, wrong terminology. Could you click on the username that shouldn't be there and grab a screenshot of the Profile page that pops up. Sorry about that.

    Was also getting the "s3ndnudes" username on the homepage, however once I clicked off to any other page it changed back to being my own username. Seems to have sorted itself now so perhaps a caching issue somewhere.

    Hi, this still seems to be happening but when I click on the avatar it just goes to my normal control panel area

    Interesting new development..

    I can't click on the username for some reason, but the bottom left corner shows the URL when I hover over it. Doesn't appear to have the user ID normally associated with me.
