There are a million things possible, as you probably tried. Some thoughts:
1. Users access shared folders - not computers. Does every user see the
same symptoms?
Can someone explain why, in Windows Explorer, a tiff's Creation Date shows as
being later than its Modification Date, while in Adobe Bridge, the Modification
Date shows as being later than the Creation Date (which should always be the
case)? tia.

When you were troubleshooting, did you turn off all your firewall software?
Would be nice to know if that affects the results.

Actually, I think you have misread the figures. It is 10,000 per
week.

If you take into account how many folks fly on any given day and how
many go through the airports in a given week as an average you will
find it is not really a high number.

none of them has sensitive information and wouldn't have made the

Unless you're on a long-term contract, you should be able to cancel

Actually they measure only B and C class airports which are some of
our busier airports.
I usually fly out of a Class (I don't know) airport which is a local
feeder to Atlanta.
There are only less than a half dozen flights out and they are all on
Delta so do not think we have that many

Maybe there's more thefts at the TSA security checkpoints since owners
can be more separated from their laptops?
Years ago, when going through a security checkpoint - before there was a
TSA - someone accidentally picked up my laptop as it got through the
x-ray machine before I was able to

I've been watching this thread and I'm really tired of Mr. Rigby's
unsubstantiated accusations of theft by TSA employees. The article says
that 69% of the laptops are not reclaimed it does NOT say they were not

It's probably file corruption in IE6. The good news: You shouldn't be
using IE6 anyway. Upgrade to IE7. Or better yet, Firefox or Opera.

Flaky memory? Some memory will pass a test that reads the memory address
immediately after it has been written, but will fail if the read occurs many
minutes later. The leak (loss of charge) is slow, and it takes a while for
the 1 to bleed down to a 0.
When a memory address can't be read it
I was going to suggest swapping the position of you memory boards and
see if you don't end up with errors in other applications - a sure sign
that you have one bad memory board.
