Dup of bug 278900, almost certainly.

Reporter, please state on what server/network you experienced this problem. Even better, copy-paste the output of /supports into a bug comment. I'm fairly sure James is right, but to be 100% sure, the /supports message would certainly help.

For clarity, that would be the output of /supports as shown when executed on the tab for the server/network you experience the problem on.

Fixing summary.
