does this matter?

["Mike ." <dmciscobgp () hotmail com>]

just talked to George a bit ago about my issue with the router brute force script. he told me i had a -- out of place. 
i just put that extra dash in and still got an odd errornmap: illegal option -- û
so just for the heck of it i ran the dashes as singles and that seemed to work! output here>
 C:\>nmap -p80 -script http-brute -script-args http-brute.path=/admin/ 192.168.0.1  (notice the single dashes)
so the question here is, does it even matter? single or double dashes? but again i am confused. when i run this brute 
force against this damn login page, nmap  still says this : 80/tcp open  http    syn-ack| http-brute:|_  Path "/admin/" 
does not require authenticationMAC Address: 50:39:55:44:F5:AE (Cisco Spvtg)
i have already tested blank auth and it does not go! what the hell?
