I was able to roll back to 2.09 but I'm not sure I backed up correctly. Problem still occurs with 2.09 so I guess I'm stuck with the rest of you guys. 

This bin file appeared when I tried to back up. If this isnt the right file let me know and I'll see if I have it: http://www.mediafire.com/?2ant55oub3rwzan
