Sounds like a corrupted name. Does it stop at the same place each time?
There was a discussion about this some time ago on the old NTLK but I don't
remember the easy fix. The hard fix was to export all names as a tab
delimited file with NCU, take them into excel or a flat file database of
some type and check for errors, discontinuities, etc.. Then delete the names
soup and the prefs and re import. At least I hope for your sake that's how
it's done. If there is an easier way, someone please chime in.>
