Its probably saying -1 Linden.  Check your Dashboard - Account - Transaction History to see where your linden have gone.  Most likely you are a member of a group that has their members paying group liabilities.  And since the weekly search fee was collected today, that's probably why you saw it today.

A group may receive income, for example if it sells an object deeded to the group or rents out group-owned land. Such income is referred to as a group dividend. Group dividends are distributed equally among all group members who have the Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends ability associated with their role. Likewise, all group liabilities are also spread evenly among group members with this ability.

If no one else in the group has this ability, then group liabilities and dividends are paid to the group's owner. If there are no enabled accounts in the group that have the Pay group liabilities and receive group dividends ability, then liabilities and dividends are spread evenly between group members.

This happens sometimes when the linden balance gets fudged up. Click on the -1L in the viewer and it should update to the right amount.

Had this problem over a month ago when there was something wrong with one of their servers. Couldn't send a friend L and everytime I attempted I got an error and my Linden Balance went down to -1L.

Often this means that there is a problem at the Linden Lab server end and it has not been possible to retrieve your L$ balance. Try logging out, closing your Viewer, and then logging  in again.

Very often it is a temporary fault and does not mean your L$ have gone.
