Hi, I'm finding a very strange error. For no good reason my R console (Rgui.exe, R 2.5.0, under win XP) stops producing anything meaningful, and just returns: Error: bad value to _whatever_ I enter. It starts doing this after a while, not immediately when launched. I have to restart R when this happens. No idea why. I didn't change anything in the R config that I remenber. Any thoughts?

I can't see other reasons for it than memory corruption. Are you running some rogue C code? Is the machine flaky in other respects?
