Anyone have issues with the timers?

On 97w only. 15 channels are stuck in a record loop of some kind. I do not have an HDD or USB stick connected to the STB. All timers, 8 available, are set to OFF.
However, the 15 affected channels are on the timers that appears on the second press of the info button.
There is a yellow timer buttom which opens a menu to setup recordings or channels to come ON.
I change the Timer Mode to OFF then press the Save option. OK so far. Then I exit the menu.
The timer has a mind of its own and turns itself back on.

Tried reboots, pull power plug etc. No change.

I'm on SW version 2011-08-30. I had the same problem with the previous SW version.
 
No problems here. Running C2HS2-12-06-18 FW Version. Think it's available in the downloads section (By far the best FW that's been on this S9 - IMHO)
Just from the symptoms, think I'd backup the TP_PROG file (Misc Files ; That's your channel list)
Then I'd do a Factory Reset. Scan 97W, check for the symptom.
See if the symptom reappears if/when you reload the TP_PROG file?
Maybe load newer FW??
