The subscriptions form behave uncorrectly when a content has been submitted by an anonymous user.
As example:

If "userxx" post a content type "News", then the reader will obtain a form with something like:

X Content News
X Content News of userxx

But if the user who posted the content was anonymous them the reader will obtain:

X Content News
X Content News of

I think the subscriptions to content of an authon should be disabled if the author is anonymous.
Another way could be to show ".. of anonymous" but i think is not so useful.

Here is an example (sorry for the italian translation, but shoud be intelligible): http://www.playlinux.net/notizie/2008/04/23/mother-zeros-hacking-simulat...

Hope this help to improve your module!

Congratulations, you've found the first bug in the release version! :-)

An administrator/moderator might want to subscribe to posts by anonymous users, and these posts display the admin-selected "Anonymous" name. I see no reason not to allow subscribing specifically to posts by "Anonymous."

This patch fixes this.

Thank you for reporting!
