You don't mention your version of PV or your OS so I am just 
guessing that you are using 2.6.0 on Linux.

There is a fix for the VRML reader in the CVS version of 
2.6.0 that was described a week or two on this list. It will 
be in the archives. With that I could read VRML with no errors.

I found that there is another bug where the reader ignores 
the "transform" command. Not all VRML files use that command 
and so that may not be important for you. It produced no 
error - just didn't do the transform.
