Illegal Address for field "ASI_Favorite_Dict_ID"

A client installed GP 10 onto their first W7 computer over the weekend. They went through the normal installation process by lauching GP utililities to include SP5. Now when everyone comes in on Monday, they receive this error message "Illegal Address for field "ASI_Favorite_Dict_ID in script ASI_Explorer_CanAdd_HomePageReminder". All other workstations are XP. On the server I can log on as 'sa' and not get this message. However if I log as as 'sa' from any workstation I do get this message. Obviously this has something to do with Smartlist but under SQL Maintenance there is no SP called HomePageReminder so I can simpy drop and recreate it. Any suggestions as to how to stop this annoying message?

Just in case anyone runs into this same problem, here is what caused the issue. On Saturday someone came in and installed a GP 10 client onto a W7 workstation. All clients here use shared dictionaries. Apparently there was old, empty modified forms dictionary for SmarList. Since no one was in GP at the time of the client installation, GP Utilities corrupted this dictionary. So now when everyone logged in not only did they get this message but all of the SmartList lookups(i.e. Customer or Vendor Lookup, et al) the headings now were A,B,C instead of Customer ID, Customer Name, etc. The fix was simply to delete this bogus form dictionary. I had checked security and the only form in there was the home page.
