Assuming that phatty is correct and your PtokaX is toast, you do not want a script through PtokaX to perform the duplicate removal.
This is why more people should use *nix. We're going to steal one of their commands called uniq.
Go here:
http://david.tribble.com/programs.html
Download uniq.exe
Or go here:
http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
And get a whole package of usefull Unix utilities along with uniq.
Put uniq.exe in your PtokaX folder.
Windows XP/2000
Start -> Run -> cmd
Windows ME, 98, 95
Start -> Run -> command
Type: cd "Your PtokaX directory"
example: "C:\Program Files\PtokaX\"
Type: uniq RegUserDB temp.txt
Replace RegUserDB with the name of the registered user file. I don't remember the exact name of the file.
Open temp.txt and check it out. Now just rename this file for your new PtokaX install.
However, I do have a sneaking suspicion that PtokaX did not change during a crash. It very likely is the script messing up. You could look into that if this method fails.

You may also want to try.
uniq -u RegUserDB
This will show all lines that are NOT repeated in sequence. May reveal a line that is causing a problem in the file.
For more commands:
uniq --help

you could also open your reguser.dat file in note pad and then remove the duplicate names.
but be sure to do it on a copy .
then if you have removed all the doublles STOP ptotax and replace the old reguser .dat with the one you have edited.
but make sure pkotax is,nt running when replacing the file otherwise it will not work.
i would like to know, if your muliplt users also show in the regged, userlist of ptokax or in the tba GetReggedUsers(profile) ( I think it is), or only in the reggeduseres.dat file?
If show also in the regged useres list or in the regged profile, then I would say something needs to be changed in ptokax.
Same with banning IPs one can ban the same IP millions of times, really usefull, lol.
