After having read the other replies, I have another theory. This is
based on TPF (predecessor of Kerio) reporting that Kernel32.DLL wanted
to connect out. I checked the file with PCC6, who reported no error,
so I sent the file to the "Virus Doctors" over at Trend. They replied
that what I had sent them was the unaltered file distributed with
Chinese Windows (I hadn't told them about Chinese).

Anyway, it turned out I had a trojan on my HD that claimed to be the
kernel file. You may have a trojan that claims to be TB.

Now checking for trojans is tricky, as several anti-trojan tools are
good, but none of them came over the 90% detection rate that I read in
tests at that time (over a year ago). So it is best to run several,
one after the other. Some are freeware, some give you an eval period
of 30 days. (BTW PC-Cillin, known as an anti-virus tool, also scored
relatively high in the anti-trojan test.)

In my case, the problem only disappeared after a Windows reinstall
(after an unrelated HD crash).
