    First thing I'd try is a reboot. Next would be clearing system cache partition. If still no luck, I might try uninstalling market updates via phone settings > applications > all > market > uninstall updates

    I'm not sure if that last one will reset all of your market settings, including individual app auto-update settings but this next thing to try will do those things: in the same place as you uninstalled updates, clear market cache/data.

    Still no luck...factory reset.
    Do you like uninstallable bloatware?
    It takes about 5 minutes to complain and it's kinda fun. Let's not be complacent!
    Contact Verizon (anonymous w/ fake name if you like)
