+1 Bitkahuna.
I over-wrote the wp-admin and wp-includes and the root WP folder files EXCEPT wp-config.
Refreshed admin screen, updated DB, et, voila.
is this fixed? my TDO MF stopped working and I am getting the bad data error now for some reason.
Same for me over at wherespresso.com
To debug this required an our of turning about 30 plugins on and off, whilst on phone to ISP, to find it.
As soon as I clicked “Activate” it started a loop and rogue processes.
Rectification needed the ISP to kill the processes and me to quickly de-activate.
I am running latest version of WP with Analytics, CommentsLuv, AddThis, Google Maps, Apture, Feedsmith, WP Sticky/Print/Email/Comment Rating/Post Rating, Contact Form 7, TDO mini forms, Subscribe to comments, Similar Posts, SEO plugin etc.
