Database View Security Error; Caused by SMSTones++ |

A few hours ago I went to pick up my P800 and I was shocked to see the TOD. I wasn't shocked because I never get it as I get it once a week or so, but because I only get it when I'm writing an SMS, email, post on Esato etc. As it was restarting and displaying the colourful SE logo I got a "Database Security View Error" in one of those little blue boxes near the top of the screen.
I'd never seen it or heard of it before so I searched around. There are no mentions of it here @ Esato that I could find and 1 post @ My-Symbian. It turns out that it is caused by SMS Tones++. I'm assuming I got an SMS (which is now lost) which crashed my P800 at the same time SMSTones++ was accessing the address book.
The post @ My-Symbian included an email from Soft & Wireless on the issue and they said to uninstall the program and delete all traces of it from c:systemappsSMSTones. I did this and restarted my P800 and the error was gone. As soon as reinstalled SMSTones++ and started it up I got the same error again. I've now uninstalled it and it looks like I'll be doing without it until some people can hopefully shed some more light on the subject. Any ideas?
Edit: I reinstalled with v1a (as opposed to v1) but same error. It's a shame, I really liked that program. It was handy.

I guess someone needs to rewrite the program. That sounds like a beta version to me. Though my guess is that it's final?!
Complain to the people who made the application.

You could have a point. I did just add a contact yesterday with ' because I got a call from a person I didn't know (it was probably someone's phone in their pocket dialling my number) but I thought I might keep it just in case so I added it to my phonebook as "I don't know". I'll see what happens if I delete that number and reinstall SMSTones++.

Cheers mate. I deleted my contact with ' and reinstalled and all works fine now. It turns out I had v1a installed from the beginning and why I got the TOD is still a mystery but otherwise great. Thanks again.
Isn't it great when you get a wierd problem with your P800 that you would've never been able to solve on your own, you come to Esato and have it fixed up in no time. Gotta love it!
