I don't have prototype.js in my theme, but it was in my /wordpress dir/wp-includes/js/ directory. For now, I just DELETED it off the server and I can't find anything breaking... yet. I thought I read somewhere that this file needs to be reloaded or uploaded in a different format or something... Anyway, thought I would toss this $0.02 in... thanks!

What I did was find the prototype.js in my theme files (/your/web/host/yourblog/wp-content/themes/yourtheme/) and change it's name to pt.js. I then entered the pt.js file and changed all instances of Prototype or prototype to Pt or pt. I then edited functions.php to reference pt.js instead of prototype.js and everything was happy again. I had this problem with the Tarski theme, but I'd imagine that the solution would work with any theme that uses prototype.js IN THE THEME. Maybe this will help you.
