Recently a person on campus came to me with a problem that was a little
strange...the system on several machines is being modified on a regular
basis (sometimes as often as every 5 minutes).  This strange occurance
sometimes causes the hard drive not to boot or take longer to launch
applications.  He is running Vaccine and has checked these machines
several times with Disinfectant but has found no viruses.

Any clue as to what is going on?  This is affecting system 6.0.3 and
6.0.2 machines with none to quite a few inits/cdevs (it doesnt seem to
be very picky).

Thanks for any help,
