You said you are coming out clean after your 2004 application, does this mean that you used deception in the past?
If so, i'm afraid your recent travel history might not enhance your application and influence the decision of the Visa Officer: there is even a possibility that the UK embassy would contact the embassies that had issued you their visas to inform them of the record that they have against you; and that could result in the cancellation of your other visas.

Note: I'm making judgement based on the limited information that you gave, so, it might not really be the case.
Also, i'm aware of the fact that the banning system came into effect in 2007, but be aware that those who committed deceitful, fraudulent or misleading acts are still given the ban when they apply again.

Hummmmmmm,now you making more sense to me ooo...as at 2004 i was deceptive in my application
again i have just gone down the memory lane to remeber that the passport am holding right now besides the swap in name as a diffrent date of birth ex:05/may/1973(as at former passport)and 05/may/1982 on the new passport..with this one dat ave just discovered again am really lost at what position to stand on either to stick and say the truth and inform them that i had once applied before or basicly claim am applyin for the first time and then change informations that i will be submitting now completly,Bro i still await what u think i should stick to...
if it will become wahala with my other visas mayb make i comot uk for my travel spots ooo

@VICJUSTICE
Is there any reason for wanting to hide your previous application?
Swapping your surname and middle name is not enough to conceal your person, with other matching data like your date of birth, mother's name & date of birth, father's name & date of birth, mother's & father's place of birth, mother's family name etc, There is a high chance that you will be found out and given a 10 years ban

Man,thanks for the reply i really do appreciate even thou i did not intentionally swap my middle name to my first name it was an error at the immigration while picking up a new passport then year 2006 after i lost the former passport every other information is the same except the swap name..nevertheless i will stick with your advice to say the truth about my former application as at 2004,thou i currently ave a great travel history over the years been to over 10 countries since then till now...i really do appreciate your reply,but hope after comming out clean about my 2004 application they will not pounder over why my middle name is changed to my first name? as it was not an intentional thing o,thou the 3 names are the same just that middle name is now first name and first name to middle name surname remains the same

House..i once applied for a 6month visa in the year 2004 thereabout and was denied a visa,now i intend applying for a 6month visa this year 2012 with the same name,same date of birth and a diffrent passport and a diffrent passport number plus now a switch of my middle name to last name...i wana kno if telling the embassy that i had never applied for a british visa will not detected since there was no finger print then
