Damnit! I KNEW IT! I have been telling the suckers at work now for a couple of months "I bet you anything Uncle Billie and his gang of thieves, has done something to purposely break it"!! They all were saying nah.... I KNEW IT! I'll go look again. There has GOT to be a way to turn off what ever it is that XP is looking for. Unfortunately it isn't something obvious. I did a trace and it just doesn't jump out at me. It must be something in XP itself. Maybe I need to try a regmon or filemon on the xp box to see what it is doing internally. First I believe I'm going to google again and see if I find something that works. If so, I'll post here.
