This is odd.

I just logged in (10.6.2) and a modal alert appeared:

---
Time Profile Failed
Time profile was not authorized by user.
[OK]
---

It has a generic app icon. It doesn't seem associated with any named
app. It seems to be interfering with the spotlight menu item, which
doesn't come down when it is clicked on, and command-space doesn't work
now.

Has anyone else seen it? What causes it?

Quite a few other Apple menu items on the RHS have pretty much disabled
contents - eg Time Machine, clock, power, airport, bluetooth, scripts.

A google's not shown any hits for "Time Profile Failed". There's
nothing odd-looking in system.log either.

Might there be a connection with the change to summer time? This'll be
the first time with Snow Leopard.

The clock was OK before I logged out and in again.

The only other odd thing was that Backup.app kicked off a timed daily
backup, but then it normally does when I log in regardless of the time.

But yes, it still could be summer time related.
