Seems exactly same as myself.  As said think will hold off now till a core member can comment on.  As looks to do with isecure not sure what to do as looks a new feature they implemented for the ssl support.

MachineKiller -

Have you seen any more insances of the errors now that your sites are up and running on 4.5.4?

If not I think you are correct that it is an isolated incident due to a user accessing your site during the upgrade. 

As a side note, I HIGHLY recommend using the app_offline.htm file method to block user access to sites before running an upgrade!  (See my upgrade blog for details http://www.mitchelsellers.com )

I experienced these events on my test site, that is located in my office behind my firewall, has no domain name, and no one in the world can access it (I hope).

I got these on a site where I had put an app_offline.htm.

I've now rolled back to 4.5.3. I was getting too many 'Object reference not......' errors. That with errors in custom profile properties was making my site unviable. I'll await others testing this through it's outside my league.

Well so far so good.  One site which upgraded yesterday has had no more errors apart from one which still not isolated and looks like a crawler in truth ( See below) related as points to a /ctl/ addy. Funny thing is i don't have a guestbook module on since redoing my site this link on my server no more to my knowledge. Or guestbook module. 

Reguard the first errors reported related to the upgrade none have been coming up since the upgrade on either of the sites so looks is mainly on install or upgrade related.  looks like mainly isecure related which presume is due to the new ssl improvements. Main thing am worried about is wether to upgrade our high traffic sites.  Going back to my first theory i think poss could be wrong and that vista reads as media centre edition in log as like someone said i usally but a url redirect whilst upgrading the sites and then just before i access them i resolve back to the proper path.  One thing that not noted is one is on my own server hosted in house and the other install is on a webhost4life server just to confirm is on 2 seperate server installs.
