Help with HD Error

[fr4c]

I was experiencing some constant browser and programs so I restarted my MBP and ran Verify Disk. Here is the error message:

Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Incorrect size for file keyedobjects.nib
(It should be 0 instead of 6383)
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
Checking Extended Attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.

Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit


1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair

It would not even allow me to Repair Disk. Anyone know what I should do?

You can't repair the disk you boot from so you'll either need to boot from the OSX restore discs (holding C at startup) and use the bundled version of Disk Utility to repair your drive, or you'll need to run fsck from Single User Mode.

DOH! Forgot about Disk Utility from OSX disk. Thanks for reminding me and now the problem is fixed.

But do you guys think this may be a sign of possible HD failure, or is this just a software issue?

It could potentially be a sing of imminent failure but I wouldn't be too worried at this stage. Just use Disk Utility to keep verifying it every now and then.
