I see that the question about the operating system from 23.8.2010 was from me. 
But never got an answer.

So here I see you are using windows. Probably you have trouble with the 
oct2mat package. Can you check the following:

start octave and then type

pkg list

if you see in that list a package named oct2mat and it has an astrisk * which 
tells you that it is loaded do the following

pkg -rebuild noauto oct2mat

exit octave and start it again and see if the problem is still there.
