>Description:
	The adduser script doesnt escape special characters.

	This is when trying to use '(' and ')' in the password.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Lock out the account after creation? [no]: 
	Username   : cwg
	Password   : *****
	Full Name  : cwg
	Uid        : 1002
	Class      : 
	Groups     : cwg 
	Home       : /home/cwg
	Shell      : /bin/sh
	Locked     : no
	OK? (yes/no): y
	eval: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
	adduser: ERROR: There was an error adding user (cwg).
	fame# 
>Fix:
	Maybe use perl (again) :)
