 Tried it with the same result. Just that 'gzip' is now the rogue porcess
instead of zcat. I was under the impression that they were, in fact,
the same executable anyway just checking argv[0] to alter behavior.

 Only way I can find to kill the rogue process is reboot NT. Hope I
can find a way to work with b17.
