Eclipse IDE: Failed to initialize monitor thread error after installing Android SDK?

I just installed the ADT Plugin for eclipse but I keep getting the error alert on start of eclipse: Failed to initialize Monitor Thread: Unable to establish loopback connecti开发者_JS百科on after I click OK It goes onto repeated connection attempts that look like this

[2011-09-20 13:19:58 - DeviceMonitor]Connection attempts: 321

There are 320 other logs like this in my eclipse console and it increases like every second or so. I've been trouble shooting this for almost a week now I can't seem to figure out what to do. I've uninstalled and re-installed the sdk, un-installed and re-installed eclipse but this error still comes up. Does anyone have any Idea what to do?

My development platform in windows.
