Wordpress

version: WordPress 2.7.1

I recently created a new category in a blog by wordpress.

I created a long category name like win32 api programming and the description as windows api programming and win23api programming.

But after saving it the name and the description changes to

name: win32 api instead of win32 api programming and

desc: Win32 api snippets

I don't want to upgrade my wordpress because i dont like some new features in the new releases.

what should i do to get my actual strings(names) intact?
