David:

You have a corrupted AFSCache file.   You either need to delete
it or upgrade to the current release of OpenAFS for Windows.

You might want to read the OpenAFS for Windows Debugging section in the
 afs-install-notes.txt file.   It provides clues on how to track down
the cause of problems such as this.
