Boy do I feel stupid for not reading that error message carefully.  I
really have no excuse.

The cause was not Norton - which I run but which is configured to do a
pop-up whenever it takes an action.

I just added a second drive, mostly for backups and video.  So when I
formatted it, I (foolishly) choose large allocation units - 65k.  I
never imagined that NTFS might be so braindead as to prevent some
operations when large allocations are used.  But I guess it does.  I
had moved my temp files to the new large disk.  Thats why the error. 
Moving them back to C: fixed it.

It also apparently explains my failed scan, since my music library and
playlists are back.

So again, thanks for the help.
