As somebody else noted, you probably have a spurious D00 code in your Gerber file. Older versions of PCB would emit this code if you created a circle (hole or via) with 0 diameter. Here's a discussion about this on Sparkfun: http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?p=44189 More recent versions of PCB have fixed this problem. I don't know if you created a 0 diameter circle, or if there is a different problem with your board. Please post your .pcb file and DJ and the gang can look to see what you did which generates the D00 code. Meanwhile, your best bet is to fix the problem in the .pcb file, regenerate Gerbers, and resubmit to your fab house. By the way, the latest version of Gerbv (version 2.1, due out any day now) has a specific check and report for the D00 bug. Perhaps you could also post your silk layer Gerber? I'd like to test it in the newest gerbv.
