[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 284583"] I've googled for this message error and saw that some advise to launch the Hardware Test (in the Mac OS X Tiger Install DVD) in extended mode as in some cases, it seems to be the hard drive that is dying. Others experienced this after installing an update. Some tried to re-apply the update in the hope that it would fix this. I even saw a guy in a German Mac forum who thought he had found a solution by deactivating [I]Enable Firewall Logging[/I] in the System Preferences ---> Sharing ---> Firewall tab ---> Advanced. So, as you can see it's really not clear what could have caused this or what the real solution is. Since you can't access your Mac right now, I would try to run the Hardware Test and running [I]fsck -f[/I] in Terminal if you can get there. [/QUOTE]
