Ick sorry about the formatting! I should know better than to send a plain-text hotmail message with a non-microsoft browser like Opera. Trying again:
 
I just tried it in Safe Mode with Command Prompt only. I got weird stuff, though not exactly the same as I was getting before. Most of the time ls responded completely correctly. But a few times:
 
bash-3.2$ ls
Debug bulletin_gen_cpp.lib bulletin_pp.libp. bulletin_util.libib
Release bulletin_io_cpp.lib bulletin_pp_dll.exp
 
bash-3.2$ ls
CVS bulletin_gen.lib bulletin_msg_cpp.lib bulletin_pp_dll.lib
Debug bulletin_gen_cpp.lib bulletin_pp.lib bulletin_util.lib
Release bulletin_io_cpp.lib bulletin_pp_dll.exp
 
You can see in the top case case it's somehow munged the 2nd line and doesn't show the first one at all; the second ls output is the correct output.
 
I think "safe mode" rules out BLODA, but even if it doesn't, an essential tool like ls would be especially useful if it could survive being installed at the same time as a virus checker, for example.
