Someday when you want to see, check out what Norton does with SysInternals ProcMon tool. On, Off, Ignore, still puts a finger on the file.

I'll ask them to configure the A/V (I think it's Norton) to ignore the DBC/DCX/DCT/DBF/FPT/CDX files and hopefully that will fix it. Obviously we're trying to take the least invasive approach so as to not hack the security altogether. I'm wondering if just for a short/quick test, we turned off the Norton A/V and retried if that'd make a difference. I thought originally that this might have been UAC rearing its PITA head, but perhaps that's not it after all. Thanks again for your thoughts! --Michael _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
