Note: If you are using Workstation 4, you might see a blue screen instead of this message.
This error occurs when Workstation checks for certain USB monitors (sniffers) that were found during testing to cause undesirable effects and may cause the host to crash.
Note: Some customers have reported seeing this error when Microsoft Services for Unix are installed on their hosts. The only known solution for this issue is to remove Microsoft Services for Unix from the host.
