Micah,
Wow, that seemed to get it! I should have asked what kind of draino (the L2mfix file) I was running on my system to get it clean. But no questions in order to get rid of this bug.
I'm not sure if it will come back on a reboot though. Any info on what this bug was?
Here are the files I ran:
/\/\/\/\/ 1st is the L2mfix;/\/\/\/\/\/
L2Mfix 1.04
