OK this error could be caused by one in a million different things in the map itself. From a strange freak problem, to an easily explainable one, it could be anything in the map. The fact the map is protected would only cause a crash to the map editor if you were trying to open it. It looks like in this case you were trying to play it.

Most likely it is one of those protected maps.

Where a person believes they have created something worth stealing so they upset the commands or remove something or put in false data so the Editor can not open the map.

On occasion you can get the same error message if the map was map with say WE Unlimited - then its a matter of advanced triggers frelling the works. Most often the message is slightly different, saying that the editor can not located XXX command or functions.
