Ray, and Ed,

I use to get the same and I am running 10.4.11
But, i have done the following:
Started up with the Shift key down (safe mode) and waited .. and waited.
Then, logged in.
Then, ran disk utility until those alerts stopped.
Do not remember but believe 2-3 times.
Then, shutdown, and went for some coffee.
Then started up and problem gone.
Have NO clue why.

Had a very similar experience with Ical application when using  
iconical. Stopped using iconical and problem stopped.
I assumed iconical was doing something to cause the issue.
Do not know what.

Ray:

I am running 10.4.11 and get the same messages. I am guessing that it  
is normal.
