    You'll get this if you're out of space on your device to download the content update.

    Delete and reinstall. If that doesn't work, unmount sd card, and then delete/reinstall.

    judgementbow: Error -18 means there's a bad temp file on your sdcard from a partial installation.

    There are a couple ways to deal with this:

    1) Work around the problem: Uninstall, unmount your sdcard, install, then remount it and move it to the sdcard (if you want it to be on the sdcard).
    2) Fix the problem: Find the .android_secure directory on the sdcard and remove the 'smdl2tmp1.asec' file. You can either do this by mounting the sdcard on a computer, or with a file manager app.
