yeah you have a program thats causing this issue. before you try a cold boot, do a warm reset first (search for warm reset for instructions). it that does not work, then it will be best if you just reboot the phone from scratch and do a manual install of apps until you find the one causing this. you can just rename your backup folder so it wont be deleted and then delete your saved and unsaved prefs and also kill the archive folder (you can rename it also to keep it). once you do a virgin sync you will get new folders so no big deal.

this is a common issue with folks and palms and has been asked many many times. 9 out of 10 its a faulty program or file....
