I had the exact same problem with Quicken 2004 and found that the
program was the problem. I removed quicken by using the uninstall
procedure and deleted all the quicken files (except for my data files).
I then reinstalled quicken and opened the data file. Quicken then was
fine. One thing i had to do was install quicken in a different partition
from the one i had previously used. If i installed in the old partition
i got the problem. I once saw an error message about the quicken
launcher which may not get overwritten if you reinstall in the same
partition.
