FormBuilder Function eregi() is deprecated

My hosting site is forcing all users to upgrade their php version. All the wordpress core stuff works fine as well as almost all of my plugins. The only failure is the FormBuilder plugin.

There is one line within the formbuilder.php that uses an outdated php function, eregi()

eregi — Case insensitive regular expression match

This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0. Relying on this feature is highly discouraged.

So now that my hosting company has updated php version, All visitors to my site are greeted with a nice error message.

And yes, I did download the latest version of the software. Same error exists.
