Chronic "Missing or broken reference" error

Several times a week I get this error. The missing reference is always
owc10.dll in the web components common files. The file has never been moved.
The references in the application have not been changed. Yet mysteriously
Access seems regularly to lose track of it. Interestingly, the application
contains a number of other references which never have this problem. Only
owc10.dll drops from sight. In the end, I suppose, not a big deal but
annoying as all get out and makes me wonder about the stability and
reliability of this product. Has anybody else encountered this strange
problem?
 
If you are not actually using this library, you could solve the problem by
removing the reference.

You can get a stable database if you eschew all unnecessary references.
Typically, 3 is enough: the 2 required libraries and one to give your
recordsets. More info:
