Description:
------------
If session variable keys are used in the page as regular variables, ie; $_SESSION['IsGod'] and $IsGod, the session variable is replaced with the value of the local variable. I couldn't believe it myself, but its been causing errors ALL OVER THE PLACE !!!. anyway, feel free to check it, the checkbox the value was reading from was named chkIsGod so thats not it, and on changing local to "$God" the problem died.

Horrible bug.
