Error: StringStartsWith can't accept null parameters

Hi,
I wish to edit security on a certain report that has been published on my report
server. I visit the "Properties" tab in Report Manager, then click on "Security".
I click on "Edit Item Security" and click through the javascript popup about
inheritance. Then I get a page which says simply, "Error - StringStartsWith can't
accept null parameters".
Has anyone encountered this error? I have no clue how to proceed with debugging,
since I can't even find the code that's throwing this error, nor do I know to
which parameter it's trying to apply StringStartsWith.
Any help would be appreciated.
--Adam BlissPlease, tell us which version of Reporting Service you are using. Also
please provide stack trace for this failure. You should be able to locate it
in one of the log files. Log files are located in the LogFiles directory in
Reporting Services. Look at ones like
ReportServer__07_08_2004_##_##_##.log
and
ReportServerWebApp__07_08_2004_##_##_##.log
Look inside appropriate files and search for string 'StringStartsWith'.
Attach about 50 lines around it.
Thank you.

I am hitting this error when using the Sample Security Extension supplied by M$. Eventviewer tells me that Report server could not load the forms extension.
