Basically the initial install works fine and the site seems fine.  However, when I change the default skin to use a vertical menu I get An Error Occured (followed by the error at the end of this message).  At this point the site is toast.  Trying to bring up any page after this results in an Error Has Occured.  I have to drop and recreate the table before it will work again.  I'm using the 4.4.1 Install package and SQL 2005 (full version).  I've tried changing the skin by using the site wizard and via the skins page with the same problem.

HELP!

An error has occurred.

You just need to get a few more .dll files for the site.
