3.5.6.  The install date is 14 Jul 2007, so I guess that an update of 
something is affecting it.  From what you say, perhaps it's a mis-alignment 
of versions and the next update will probably fix it.  Thanks.

From about the same time, so probably related, is the fact that using the tray 
icon to access samba shares no longer works without help.  It brings up smb:/ 
then says that it can't find any workgroups.  Adding the second '/' fixes it.
