I don't have great knowledge on this, but seeing how nobody else has yet to respond, I would say it's VERY likely that your OOBs aren't matching what your opponents OOBs are.

Make sure you and your opponant have IDENTICAL OObs. Opening them in the editor and savig them EVEN IF YOU MAKE NO CHANGES can cause that error.

You cna choose to simply ignore them though. Just hit the key choice to continue and the game will play on regardless.

In online play it cna casue a crash, but in pbem you can just choose to ignore security violation messages.

I ran into this a lot in ver 6.1. I used a modified v-hex icon to make the flags smaller in the v-hex, which allowed me to see the terrain under the flag. I always just chose to ignore the message. The only problem was that in the end of the game screen where it shows the scores, one player isn't able to view the map, or the other players losses. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
