I had it fail on three separate PC's with XP SP1, without XP SP1 it worked fine on two. Our network people use ghost installations for PC's and I thought it possible something is wrong with that as we did identify a problem a few years ago with the installation they were using and communication problems. I don't have the resources to do a fresh install of XP from scratch to test.

>>Thank you Sergey for the very helpful info, this does clear this up and answer my question on the different forms. As always you continue to provide very keen insight to everyone here. I suspected a bug too, and felt compelled to see if someone else might have had a similar experience. The distribution and development configuration make it difficult for me to test.
