Shift -S Operator error?

I am unable to turn the guide off/on using Shift -S. However, Shift +V works for hiding/showing voids. OS 10.6.4 Safari

we are aware of this problem

Thanks for reminding us about this bug:

Try using the view menu for now:

"I went to View > Show Guide and unticked the check box. The guide went away and the hot-key worked again."
