Unfortunately, this did NOT solve the problem. From my former days as a MCP,
I still strongly believe that a registry key has been altered or some other
config item was changed. Neither the cache dump nor the encrypted page
setting effected the described problem.
Any more insightful, in-depth analysis would be appreciated before I simply
quit looking and spend a day doing a reformat/reload...
