Kevin,

Seems you haven't received a response to this exact

Well, to start, it looks as if it's some sort of
compiler or linker problem. Do any of these systems
have MSVC++ or any other development tools on them?

You say that this file has been appearing on
desktops...do you know that the MAC Times of the file
are? The file should exist somewhere on the system,
most likely in the directory that maintains the list
of desktop icons or shortcuts. Also see if you can
determine the owner of the file.

When you get the MAC times of the file, do a search on
the system for other files created around the same
time. Perhaps FoundStone's 'afind.exe' (shout-out to
JD Glaser on that one!!) from their Forensic Toolkit
will help.

Since you reported this two months ago, have you done
any investigation into this? If so, please inform us
of the steps you took and what you found...this might
provide us with more information.

Thanks,

Carv
