Please do not use the severity "blocker" yourself unless you are sure this bug really "blocks development and/or testing work" for everyone.

You say that GnuCash worked only once.  Did it crash or exit cleanly?
What does "make nothing" mean?  Is gnucash-bin.exe still listed as a running process in your task manager?  What about gconfd-2.exe?

Does killing gconfd-2.exe and/or deleting C:\Documents and Settings\$user\Local Settings\Temp\gconfd-$user\lock\ior help?

Next time, please use a more descriptive bug summary.
