The inquiry board reported yesterday, press release available at http://www.arianespace.com/site/news/03_01_07_release_index.html

In short:
The failure was due to a failure of the cooling system of the nozzle of the Vulcain-2 engine. It was the first flight of the
Vulcain-2; previous flights used a Vulcain-1.

No software involved.
