>In explorer, I noticed my "D" drive would apparantly randomly get mapped to a drive on the server that was already mapped to "S". I disconnected it because there was no need for it to be there. Then one day, I noticed the connection between me deleting the connection and the ISO. I looked at the shortcut the the app, and it had changed itself from the "S" drive to that mysterious "D" drive!

I only use UNCs in my app, so I don't think that's a problem. However, I just had another very important clue. I've been watching the vfp TMP files in the NT C:\Temp folder, and I just had something veeerrrry strange occur. One of the vfp temp files created when vfp or the app opened was called 4B070007.tmp

All of a sudden, the "Open With...what program?" NT dialog popped up with that file being the one NT couldn't figure out what to open with. Clearly, NT's losing track of file handles, something like that. Why on earth would it do that?
