[OpenAFS] Windows client stops working with Bluetooth adapter attached to client workstation

My oversight for Windows version: XP SP3.

Yes, there is a roaming profile being sync'ed (or attempted to sync) to 
AFS, thus the delay.  I strongly suspect the locked state is an attempt 
to sync the profile back to AFS when AFS is not answering for whatever 
reason.

I have no way to tell whether the Bluetooth adapter survives logoff.  
Removing the Bluetooth adapter seems to allow a successful logout, though.

The only eventlog eventlog entry that strikes as even remotely related 
are these:

 MRxSmb  Unknown User    N/A     Warning ROADRUNNER      None    0000: 
00 00 00 00 04 00 4e 00   ....... 0008: 00 00 00 00 cb 0b 00 80   
........  0010: 00 00 00 00 84 01 00 c0   ........  0018: 00 00 00 00 00 
00 00 00   ........  0020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00   ........         
The redirector failed to determine the connection type.
 AFS Client      Unknown User    N/A     Warning ROADRUNNER      
None            Unable to Send SMB Packet: NRC_SNUMOUT session number 
out of range.     30

(The  SMB redirector error pops occasionally on a number of our systems, 
working or not, so I didn't think much of that error here.)
