I had this problem too. For other reasons, I recently installed NT4 again 
from scratch (and applied SP2 and the same hot fixes as I had before), and
the problem has gone.

So it isn't SP2 or the hot fixes that caused it.

I wonder if it was installing SP1 (on the original install) which did it -
the NT disk I installed from this time was already at SP1 level on the CD.
