Strange problem on new install

[Julian Field]

When I get home I will take a look at this one for you. I have never  
seen this error before.

Am currently very bored in Dulles (dull by nature too) airport in  
Washington DC, tapping on my shiny new iPhone. It is remarkably usable  
and I can type a lot faster than on a normal mobile phone or stylus 
+PDA, particularly once you learn a few tricks of the spelling  
corrector.
