There seems to be something to this issue.. Which we have noted in the
thread I mentioned in an earlier post from MM's forum.  When SQL (2K or
7) is on the same box, this tends not to happen.  However, I recall that
we had at least one instance of it occuring regardless of the fact that
SQL was on the same box. (Brook, can you confirm/deny this for me?  I
thought you were involved in that convo.)  At any rate, it DOES appear
to be DB/DB Driver related.  How, specifically, I don't know.  And so
far, neither does anyone else, from what I have heard/seen/read.

If you missed my post of the thread location, here it is:

| We sure are.  MSSQL 2k though.  That's the only difference I've seen.
