Does anyone know what program might be blocking the ability to run or copy 
"setup.exe" from remote drives yet allow you to copy a bit-for-bit identical 
copy named XXsetupXX.ZIP, rename it (locally) to "setup.exe", and run it 
locally?  

System in question is an XP SP2 box running McAfee VirusScan Corporate v7 and 
McAfee VS 8.0.x on both a Windows 2000 server and another Windows XP 
workstation.  The VS8 access-protection log does NOT block actions and the log 
file doesn't show it interfering with copying the file.  

This cost my client an hour or so of my time this morning; the system is not 
"mine" but is maintained by someone providing GPS-in-golf-carts to a golf 
course, and I'm involved because we've interfaced the GPS to some golf-tourney 
software by a third-party ...

I disabled OnAccess scanning and still couldn't copy the file:

ibguard and ibserver are parts of Interbase Server, which is installed on the 
system, not some sort of protection system.

TIA for any ideas...
