What is this file when do a google search I found the following what does
this mean?
And How do I stop it and does anyone know where it may have been activated
by, I suspect the lockout is happening because the security is set to lock
out after three invalid log in attempts. I should mention that is a Win2K
pro workstation in a small peer to peer network, and thus far seems to be
the only pc affected, not sure where to start or proceed
