Can you zip up your profile's extensions directory along with the extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, and extensions.ini files that are located inside your profile's directory and email the zip file to me?

The problem is the rdf datasource is corrupted. The fix for this will be included in 2.0 and to resolve this yourself all you have to do is delete the extensions.rdf file... it will be automatically recreated.
