another problem -- .mp3 plug-in expires?

Hello --

I've been saving .wav files as .mp3s all day without
incident. Then, all of a sudden, I get an error reading "An
error occured while creating the media file xxxx.mp3. The
requested plug-in has expired." I am not using any bus,
trck, or assignable FX plug-ins, so it must be referring to
the .mp3 encoder (my guess). I've restarted my machine, and
still I get this error when trying to save .wavs as .mp3s.

I thought the ability to save any poject as an .mp3 was
standard functionality! How could the .mp3 encoder have
expired?

Please help -- this is affecting a Web page design deadline!

Thanks a lot,
Carl

Sorry!

Once again, I have spoken too hastily -- a quick call to tech support
remedied the problem immediately. I had forgotten to register the
plugin when I registered Vegas. Duh!

Again, sorry for the confusion!
