Check out if this is an issue with OSS. At my office, some guys had faced 
similar problem (not same tough). The OSS liscense has expired and such 
irregular volume hikes started occuring. At boot time, OSS used to print out 
a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggg message (that  too character by 
character!!!) informing that liscense is expired and that is why such 
behavior will be seem. In order to stop this, liscense should be 
renewed!! :-O

Well, what can be said, a very "funny" way to persuade people to get liscensed 
copies!!!

I'm not sure that this is the problem in your case though. Just felt it might 
help.

Regards,
Kapil
