I've worked at a place with a very similar hack before, but it was for a bunch of windows servers. The issue was a process was trying to scan various Office files, and even though no actual Word/Excel/etc app was running warning dialogs could suddenly appear blocking the scan process. The problem was "solved" by some frustrated ops guy that wrote a service that scanned for dialog boxes and closed them.

First time I've heard of this problem there was "Buzof" - maybe nearly 20 years ago? I just googled and it still exists: http://www.basta.com/Buzof
