I ran into an issue where after deploying some custom solutions with a customer, the SSP site would not load. It would just display a message that said unexpected error. In the event logs we saw the following error.
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Windows SharePoint Services 3
Event Category: Runtime
Event ID: 6610
Date: 10/26/2007
Time: 10:26:31 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MACHINENAME
Description:
Safe mode did not start successfully. Request for the permission of type 'Microsoft.SharePoint.Security.SharePointPermission, Microsoft.SharePoint.Security, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' failed.

The fix for this was to change the trust level in the web config from WSS_Minimal to WSS_Medium.
