Ecclipse Error on Apex Project Creation

I am getting the following error in the Eclipse Error Log whenever I try create a new Apex Project.  I've reproduced it on both my windows laptop and my windows server box.  Has anyone else encountered this?  I am using JRE 1.5 and Eclipse 3.2.1.
 
Thanks!  Mark

I am having the exact same problem, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running Eclipse 3.2.1 and java is updated to latest versions. I also tried a fresh install of the Eclipse, followed all intructions and still get the same error.

Some details:
