Topic: Unable to create table punbb-bans.

Hi, every time I try to install punBB I get this error:

An error occured on line 430 in file F:\punBB\install.php.

PunBB reported: Unable to create table punbb-bans. Please check your settings and try again.

Database reported: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-bans ( id INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, username VARCHAR(' at line 1 (Errno: 1064)

Is this a known error, or more probably a problem with my server? Most of the settings are default, and pun has full access to the specified database. I'm runnning windows XP and using OmniHTTPd server.
