Has anyone had this show up on their Win2K or WinXP machines as of late? I've
spent hours trying to search for this across the internet, but to no avail.

I first started seeing this about three days ago and it seemed harmless
enough, but it appears to be "spreading" from machine to machine. Doesn't
seem to be affecting the machine operation or anything else, and of course
our antivirus and antispy and firewall software doesn't see it as a threat.

However, right about the same time, we have two workstations that are no
longer able to share their parallel printers on the network. Coincidence?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanx.

Seems this may be it.
