Truecrypt, just a simple encrypted container, no encryption of system
drive. The server is also running AVG 9 but the Truecrypt container folder
has been excluded from RT scanning. Two folders on the encrypted volume
have been shared
Yes and nothing will change that. The data must remain reasonably secure if
the server is stolen.

My condolences. Were I in your shoes, I'd pull AVG off the server for a few
days. Also, can you actually replicate the problem if you revert to the
original DfsIRPStackSize for MUP? You can then test whether or not it
really is an AVG/Truecrypt problem.
