@Kollman: Yes, it's always good to disable plugins as one of the first steps in troubleshooting.
In the future, though, it would be better to not hijack other people's threads to talk about your own issue, since it was not contributing to the original question and may confuse people. Many, many times I found an answer by reading other people's threads, but I don't jump in even to say thank you. (In something like Stack Overflow we can up-vote, but here there isn't that mechanism.)
