DBM Error?

Mike, anyone, I need help with this one, this error really scares me.

I was doing some testing to recreate the error:

Runtime error: Data was not stored in DBM file

I deleted the session database a began a session.  After some time of just
following links around my site and periodically checking the session
database, the error occurred.  The session database went from 32k to 170k.
Upon viewing the database, the session information was being stored in a
different location each time I accessed a page, as opposed to overwriting
the previous log as I observed before the error occurred.

Can anyone help or suggest where I might look?

I asked this question yesterday, but didn't get a reply, so I'll ask again.
When viewing a database file, say userdb.db, I notice bits if information
that don't look like they should be there.  For instance, I might see
information that looks identical to that in the session database, i.e.
tracking for a users scratch variables, their shopping cart etc.  I also see
pieces of code from the various minivend modules.  Is this normal or are my
databases being somehow corrupted?
