Slow query but can't see whats wrong

Hello list,

I'm using pgsql 8.2.4 and I have this query which is sooo slow but I
can seem to figure out why.
It is using the appropriate indexes but there is something wrong with
the nested loops.

I'm running auto vacuum so the statistics should be up to date. I've
increase the statistics on most foreign keys.

Below is the query and the explain analyze.
If you need more info please let me know.

Thanks,
henke
