Backup 2 Crashing Constantly

[ptamburr]

I have been using backup 2 for a while, but recently it has just been crashing on me every time I start it up. I have tried removing the preferences, removing safari preferences, repairing permissions, repairing the disk, etc etc. Have read about every post there is out there. I am not sure why this is happening. I looked in the console, and here's what it reports:

Anybody got any ideas? I just paid for this .Mac membership a month ago, and ran fine until recently - kinda seems a waste of money to not get this to work, since it's the reason I bought the membership! Thanks a bunch!
