Happening to me right now.
Very frustrating when the error message isn't at all related to the problem!

Got this error just a second ago - I guess I'll have to spend the next couple of hours repeatedly trying then? 
Just to give an update on my understanding: Earlier I suggested it was due to exhaustion of the hot wallet, but I may have also heard that it's because of too many people withdrawing simultaneously - i.e. there's a limit to the amount of transactions that can be handled concurrently. Either way, try again later unfortunately.

Problems again today, it is extremely annoying! Mt.Gox is sinking, no doubts. 
edit: it worked now after 10th attempt after 3 hours and after 4 login/logouts

Just chiming in that this "Invalid bitcoin address, please confirm your input" BS is still alive and well. Count me as another screwed pooch. I can't even believe how cross this makes me... Mt. Gox can't expect to survive with this kind of "Paypal'esque" customer abuse can they?
Srsly wtf. Telling me my addresses are bad to cover their lack of funds? What evil. Do they care how much time I wasted trying addresses from 4 different wallets before coming here to find kindred souls?

Just happened to me too... but I clicked submit/confirm or whatever again and it worked the 4th time.
Oh well, happy to be out of gox anyway.
Yeah, got my btc out the next day after a customer support guy answered and said its a bug and that i should keep trying.... So i sat there like a pigeon at a laboratory cage feed reward button and kept bashing the pay button 4 or 5 times every 5 minutes. For an hour. It eventually worked. Bit i definitely ran up the internal index counter on my yubikey. Heh, not that it matters.
Fix this Mt Gox! It strikes fear in the hearts of your customers when you lock their funds!!!! Bug or not, there is little excuse.

So it took 7 hours?
It was more like 24-48 hours between their twp emails.. I didn't get the first message that I had sent a ticket posted right away... I never tried re-sending to the address that wasn't working.. I just sent to a different address.

I got a reply back from my support ticket.
"Hello Vox,
Thank you for contacting us. It appears for some reason this error is triggered from the platform for few BTC withdrawals specially, we are currently investigating on the cause and the solution.
However please drop a line if you were able to withdraw after a while. We appreciate your patience and sincere apologies for the inconveniences caused.

Hope this helps.. I think it just boils down to the things you want to do to make money are going to be made hard? lulz
Forget about getting your central bank money back after investing in BTC? I'm in it for the long haul and have no interest in not having BTC =D

Same situ here, trying every now and then.
August 14, 2013, 06:30:44 AM
I placed a support ticket, and kept trying to withdraw, as I clicked it for the millionth time it was a success. Same address, same everything. The support desk person must have either flicked a switch and made it work or the hotwallet got some more funds.
I am withdrawing mine. Working off and on. Have to be worried at this point. It's Like a serious run on the bank feeling.

Such Bullshit. The point of having BTC is not having shit froze or runs on the bank... WTF is wrong with these people. Withdrawing.... error again
August 14, 2013, 05:14:38 AM
i am also not able to withdraw. mtgox -> one time tested -> never again
i tried to do a little abitrage..
its not even worth if there is 50 USD difference between prices to other exchanges.

its not even worth if there is 50 USD difference between prices to other exchanges.My guess is that with the consistent >10$ difference everyone's trying some arbitrage at the moment, hence the exhaustion of the hot wallet! :O
With Gox price higher, people would want BTC to be IN gox, so they can sell high.
But what I don't get is, how are these people getting the USD out?! Since there is almost no way to withdraw USD from Gox.
thats the problem. i sold some BTC on gox. wanted to transfer out my euros. my bank account got denied 1 week later. so i bought my BTC back and wanted to transfer them back to my wallet. now i get the error when withdrawing
finally i got goxed
