I got errors similar to this when I first updated with the 4.03 patch. I discovered that some files got messed with that shouldn't have when the patch was installed...reinstalled those files from the directory that was set up when the patch was installed and quit getting the version block. Check for "Poser4 Updater Save" or something similar on your harddrive to find theses files....can't remember what files I had to reinstall now..sorry. This problem didn't seem to affect everybodies systems....but have seen this problem addressed on other forums.
