Postsharp Unhandled exception simply by adding a reference

Question

I started playing with Postsharp but cannot get past the first step. Someone else reported on their forums at http://www.sharpcrafters.com/forum/Topic4817-18-1.aspx but was wondering if anyone has come across this and perhaps have a solution.

Am using VS2008 and have .net3.5SP1 installed.

(Posting here as there is more activity than their forum).
