Mark may be infected with WDEF, but I have GateKeeper Aid, Vaccine (I know,
no good for WDEF), and (suspecting WDEF myself) have scanned both my disk
AND the server's disk using Disinfectant 1.6.  Nothing detected, and yet
the problem still occurs.  As noted in my previous post, this ONLY occurs on
System folders and a folder on my hard drive named "Binaries" (Hmmm.... I
haven't tried changing the name to see if THAT makes any difference.....).

If anyone figures this out, regardless of the cause, please post to this
group or send e-mail to me.
