Thanks, It's in C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\_viminfo, after I remove 
this file, the error does not appear any more.

That's the syntax-coloring definition for viminfo files, so when 
you're editing viminfo files, they show up in the proper colors.

The file you're looking for is named "_viminfo" on Win32 and is 
likely in

C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\_viminfo

or

%USERPROFILE%\_viminfo

or

%HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEPATH%\_viminfo

You should be able to nuke this file (or just rename it to 
something like "_viminfo.bad") and restart vim.

        :help viminfo-file-name

should point you to documentation on where this file is stored 
which is in the middle of the section on

        :help viminfo

where you can read and learn more than one would ever care to 
know about viminfo files.

HTH,
