Bug Description

I often see dialog boxes when I log in like:

    System program problem detected
    Do you want to report the problem now?

    [ Cancel ] [ Report problem... ]

If I click "Report problem" the dialog disappears and nothing seems to happen.

Is it doing something in the background? Has it broken? What was the system problem anyway?
