hi there,
I am getting the same error as yours, my deluge versions (0.5.8.4). If i am not mistaken the error is due to the torrent file. Deluge dont like folder name with extra space.
- Head over to torrenteditor.com
- upload your torrent file
- look under Meta Data -> directory : "Your torrent folder name " <-- *should not have extra space after name*

muted, I had exactly the same error (maybe worse: after Deluge would complain about not being able to write to the drive, it would occasionally crash) but I have just fixed the problem. Maybe redrum77 is correct, but I found that it had nothing to do with the torrent itself.
Turns out that my drive (which was an external iOmega 500GB USB drive) had errors (format: VFAT32) and, after running a disk utility which claimed to have fixed a series of errors, everything returned to normal. I was running Deluge 0.5.8.4 under Ubuntu 7.10 but I removed the USB drive to my MacBook Intel in order to use "/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app". After running "Verify", "Repair", "Verify", "Repair", many errors were fixed and I returned the drive back to my Ubuntu box to find no further errors.
