Sounds about right, Rich :-)

We've run into IRP Stacksize issues when installing Antivirus
software.  Norton 5.0 is *supposed* to automatically increase the IRP
stack size.  It adds 2 to whatever it already is, or sets it to 6,
whichever is higher.  I think.  At least thats what it says in the
README file on the CD.  IBM's AntiVirus product also needed us to
increase the IRP stacksize, but we had to do it ourselves.  Having too
little stacksize prevents any NET USING to the machine in question.
