Are you able to supply any details on the issue? Is this a known problem that was already being worked on, or is this a brand new issue? If this has been around for a while, do you have a timetable on a fix?
I've checked the list and have not seen anything regarding this error message. If there's anything I can do to help please let me know.
Thanks.
