On a Win2k machine (upgrade install) this file is in the root folder:
os581474.bin
The few Google references suggest that it has to do with trial-ware, but
I can't think of any trial-ware that was installed on this machine.
What makes it so "touchy" is that all I have to do is single click on it
and there is an immeidiate reboot. It goes straight to the POST with no
BSOD or brief flash or anything. It happens the same way if I use the
keyboard arrows to highlight successive files, or if I use the mouse to
box a group of files. As soon as that one is highlighted, it reboots.
It behaves the same if I'm logged in as administrator or restricted
user. It reboots too fast to use filemon to see what happened.
My only guess is that Windows is reading file properties to put in the
little pop-up description, and something doesn't like that.
But what?
