From MarketWatch: Money market giant freezes redemptions

One of the ... largest money market funds has put a seven-day freeze on redemptions after the net asset value of its shares fell below $1. Primary Fund [from The Reserve] ... $62 billion fund ... the value of the fund's share is 97 cents.

This is because of investment in Lehman bonds. I suspect this will be more common if AIG fails.
