Hi Phillip,

You may want to write to the plone-users list; this list has a smaller
audience and is mainly concerned with initial setup.

The problem you're seeing is likely coming from something in the theme
(skin) customization. Try removing everything from the portal_skins/custom
folder, or uninstalling any theme product you may have. You can worry about
skinning after the data migration.
