I don't know if i said that right.. in may case. I have a user name on twitter of BuckeyeLake_org for my site because twitter won't let you use a dot or a dash. The problem is that Drupal wants to change the (_) to a (-) which causes a problem accessing the feed and when trying to add the feed to a user account. And I think it was the reason the html wigets would not run as well...
Any suggestions out there ??

Pathauto lets you configure exactly how your paths are created. There is a section for "punctuation" where you can specify whether to replace, delete or leave elements alone. This can take control of "_" handling in your paths for your site. Worked great for me. Default was to strip out "_" and I switched it to leave it alone.

Hi equinox, thank you for your response.
I have pathauto set to 'no action' on the underscore, it didn't seem to change anything. I have to revisit the issue on my site,, i read someplace about setting the module weight to fire sooner in the database to help with some issues.
The only problem was importing tweets. I am using a flash widget for imports on that account as a work around. The twitter accounts without the _ import perfectly.
It does post to twitter just fine which is the most important function. I will be moving to new version soon to see if it helps.
If I find the solution or remedy, i will report back
