Due to technical reasons SABnzbd only supports Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1).
There's also a problem with error recovery when accessing profiles in 0.5.0.
You should download 0.5.1RC2 to solve this issue.

Otherwise start SABnzbd with the -f c:\path\to\sabnzbd.ini
and make sure no non-Latin1 characters are in the path.
