I seem to have solved this problem..  by accident.  I was having problems
with McAfee Firewall Plus so I uninstalled it, and the OS Privlgs problem
has gone with it.
I always played with the firewall inactive, but it seems that it still had
some effect - explaining perhaps why a problem that seemed to arise in Q3,
went onto affect my OS in such strange ways.
