It's funny: for an OS with so relatively few "flavours" and versions,
the number of quirks and bizarre behaviors is quite remarkable. I guess
the text matrix isn't small, though:

Windows
   XP / Vista / 7 / [8]
     32-bit / 64-bit
       Basic / Home / Pro or Business / Enterprise / Ultimate / Embedded
         On a domain / standalone
           Local admin account / non-admin account / UAC admin account
             [too many different antivirus products to list]
               Service packs
                 *endless* possible group policy configurations

... so it's not too surprising to see hard-to-reproduce weirdness
popping up.
