st: file already exists error

This is a hard error to report since I get it haphazardly, and it's been impossible for me to replicate.
Occasionally, I will get an error that says:
file C:\DOCUME~1\cohened\LOCALS~1\Temp\ST_0000001b.tmp already exists
r(602);
This error can come after any command; today -symmetry-, yesterday -reshape-. Sometimes the error will stop happening if I simply rerun the command, sometimes I need to wait 5 minutes, and sometimes I need to restart Stata entirely.
It may be important to know that I don't have admin priveleges on my computer but since it seems to be writing to my personal space, I'm not sure how that would be the problem.
Is there a way to check to check if my Stata installation is corrupt? Any other suggestions?
Version 11 on Win XP Pro SP3.
Thanks,
- Elan
