I recently experienced the same bug detailed in the URL below. The fix detailed there solved the problem for me. http://code.google.com/p/log2timeline/issues/detail?id=9 It's explained in more detail than I could convey on that page, so I haven't attempted to give more details. If you'd like any further info from me please let me know. Thanks for writing/maintaining the module, it has just saved a great deal of hassle retrieving a corrupted address book for one of my users.

Fixed in version 0.4. On it's way to CPAN now. Sorry for the delay.
