Network Load Balancing fails after Veritas Install

If this isn't the most annoying thing ever. It's been a "known problem" since Veritas Backup Exec version 9.x, but no one at Veritas/Symantec or Microsoft seems to be inclined to fix it.

Just edit the registry to remove PNP_TDI from the Group reference in the WLBLS key. For more info on how to do that, go to http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/263037.htm.
