use a hex editor... search for warthog or whatever you want to change and tell it to search in Unicode... then search through until you find what your looking for.

Well that was a little bad of a response (sorry). Open up your cache file. Press CTRL - F. Then type in the name of the w/e in your ASCII thingy. Now look in the bytes section... You have to Add zeros. So Warthog is...

Before: 57 61 72 74 68 6f 67

After: 57 00 61 00 72 00 74 00 68 00 6f 00 67

Then search.

NOTE ~ you cannot change the name longer than it already was...
I don't understand your idea of humor... But it sickens me <_<
