New user login problems

[moxhamj]

I've just had an email from someone trying to register as a new user on the forum. They are getting an error:

Database error
The PICAXE Forum database has encountered a problem.

Please try the following: 
Load the page again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.
Open the www.picaxeforum.co.uk home page, then try to open another page.
Click the Back button to try another link.
The www.picaxeforum.co.uk forum technical staff have been notified of the error, though you may contact them if the problem persists.

I've tried logging in as a new user and had the same problem. Can anyone else please test and see if this is repeatable?

Have not tested as a new user but it may be part of the current problems which include:
- problems with sending PM's
- problems with attaching files
