Just a guess. Take a look through your symbols. I'll betcha that somebody decided to make a "heavy" symbol and attached a power net directly to Vdd in the symbol. The way to check is to do a "grep -R Vdd *" in the base directory of your symbols. Then look to see which symbols (if any) have NET=Vdd or something like that in them.
