So here i am back again can I tell you how much you guys ROCK!!!!!!!! I am a level 6 Ranger with 2 favored enemys elves and Undead. Elves have my +4 on them and I was wondering if I got the bane enchantment on my sword as well as a Spirit Enemy Pouch. Do all these bonuses stack?

Enemy Spirit Pouch from MIC explicitly increases your favored enemy bonus by 2, so that stacks with favored enemy. Bane is an enhancement bonus and Favored Enemy is an untyped bonus, so these stack. So all of these would in fact stack together nicely. (Poor elves...)

So here is what is going on We have elves that have bad habbits of turning into werewolves would my favored enemy work on an elf who shifted into a werewolf form or does that change the class to werewolf instead of elf

Okay, there are two things going on here.

When the Lycanthrope (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/lycanthrope.htm) template is applied to the elf, the elf becomes a humanoid (elf, shapechanger), merely gaining the subtype.
When the lycanthrope changes it assumes an alternate form (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/specialAbilities.htm#alternateForm). When that happens, it retains its type and subtypes.

So in either case, it would still count as an elf.
