I'm no regex expert either, but I thin * means 0 or more and + means 1 or more...

Try ".+" instead of ".*" where ever you can.

I've had problems with .* regexes and strange matching - which is either because the regex is "too greedy" or the behaviour of .* is "buggy". I'm not enough of a regex expert nor code monkey to tell.
