I have seen this on numerious occasion, but have never tracked it down
to any one specific thing.  All on desktop and servers, but thats
only because we don't do laptops.

I have not seen it in quite some time (about a month), so I am thinking
it has probably been unknowingly fixed someplace.  I'll keep an eye
out for it.
