Wasn't this issue subject of a MS Knowledge Base article Q815411? My memory is fuzzy on this and I can't seem to find the thread here, or the article on MS's site. MS apparently recognizes this problem which appeared with SP-1 installed and will provide a patch on request. The fix should be part of SP-2 when it comes out. I believe the patch file is called Q815411_WXP_SP2_x86_ENU.exe. It's 550kb. If I am right, I installed that patch after suffering this problem. It has not recurred since that time.
Somebody correct me if I'm not remembering correctly.
