Dell OpenManage Client... our network guy wants us to leave it as
is. I never use it and I really don't know if he does either, or, for that
matter, what it does.

I don't remember adding these lines. I thought they were
'original equipment'. But I deleted them... makes no difference.

I am still getting the "fatal: can't create pipes message. I even
tried setting the TMPDIR in my AUTOEXEC.BAT file. No luck. I also tried
creating a C:\usr\tmp directory, in case that would help... it didn't.
I'm out of ideas...
