Never heard about something like this. Can you provide the complete 
error message text?

If you have installed my version, you drag the app to the trash and you are
done.

Can applications on that platform really do this to each other?

There are plenty of people who run GIMP on Windows 7 without any 
problems. If this is the first time you've actually run GIMP, then it 
will create a font cache of all the fonts you've got installed. This can 
take a considerable amount of time.


No idea why you can't send mail to the gimp-user-list mailing list 
address - make you you're subscribed there.

We have seen cases where "free download" websites use the GIMP as
bait to trick users into installing spyware or malware.  These
installations may or may not include a working copy of the GIMP.

This is the only safe place I know of to download a copy of the GIMP
for Windows:

http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html

If yours did not come from here, the first thing to try is to
uninstall it, download a new copy from the "official" source,
install the "known good" one and see if it works.

That's all I can think of to try, so far.

Correct me if I'm wrong (and yes, this is somewhat OT, but I was just 
wondering...) isn't .jpg and .jpeg the same basic file type? what's the 
difference?

I haven't used OS X since 10.2 or 10.3, but this is highly doubtful.
