Hmmm.  That's interesting.  It might account for the sporadic nature
of the problem.  The servers, though, are 2003.  Do you know of any
way to determine if the XP bug is also in 2003?  I've also heard that
XP SP2 RC1 is out.  Do you know of anywhere I can get info on what's
in it?  I couldn't find anything on MSDN.
