No problem.

As I said in a separate message just a few minutes ago, this was a long 
standing bug that I had problems reproducing here. Finally able to and 
it's fixed now. Already corrupted accounts will not be magically 
repaired by the fix. So you should perform the workaround:

If you have a corrupted account, when you get the error message, just
add .php to the address bar then press enter and you will have access to
the administration interface.

To fix your account, you can:
a) fix the user's preferences by going to Administration -> UI Options
and select Status - Dashboard as the home page this will overwrite the
old corrupted value.
b) if you don't care losing your account preferences, delete corrupted
users' preference file located at conf/users/<username>.
