Since you are using the last public release, it could be that the scraper involved with pulling down fan art isn't working anymore.
My suggestion first is to go into XBMC and enable debug logging from the system options area. The log you got is just a general log and doesn't have all the information when debug logging is turned on.
Then, we should be able to see bit more of what's going on.
Windows 7 x64 Home Premium
Gigabyte MA78GM-U2SH Mainboard
ATI HD3200 Onboard
AMD 7750BE Dual-Core 4.00GB RAM
ATI HD3200 HDMI Sound
HTPC HMDI -> ONKYO TX-SR605 -> Panasonic TH-46PZ85U Plasma

18:38:33 T:3900 M:1073741823 DEBUG: scraper: GetTMDBFanartById returned <details><url function="GetTMDBFanart" cache="tmdb-images-tt1289406.xml">http://api.themoviedb.org/2.1/Movie.getImages/en/xml/57983e31fb435df4df77afb854740ea9/tt1289406</url></details>
18:38:33 T:3900 M:1073741823 DEBUG: scraper: GetTMDBFanart returned <details><fanart></fanart></details>
18:38:33 T:3900 M:1073741823 DEBUG: Adding new item to movies:
...
and then just:
18:38:34 T:3900 M:1073741823 ERROR: Failed to download fanart to special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart/5c3ed1e0.tbn
I dont know what to do.. I try even start XBMC under Administrator account and run it as Administrator... Still doesnt work...

The problem is caused by tmdb's api change.
They have been notified, and the problem should be fixed within 24 hours.
Just wait a couple days, you'll be fine :-)

My fanart isn't working either. I wouldn't have notice normally except I just set up an Acer Revo and I've been kicking myself thinking there was a setting I was missing. Glad to know it's a recognized problem.
