Ravi - I am getting both of these types of messages:

skipping archived log file
H:\ORACLE\ORADATA\SALES2\ARCHIVE\ARC23830_0686767139.001; already backed up
2 time(s)

input archived log thread=1 sequence=23831 RECID=23774 STAMP=722817180
Tony - Thank you for the sympathies!  Yes, the backups succeed.  No errors
in the alert log or event viewer.
Interesting thought regarding the  virus checker, etc. But I can force rman
to delete the files - just not with "delete noprompt obsolete".

I think you folks have helped me to rule out that it isn't anything obvious.
I'll post the solution, when I get one from Oracle Support.

Thank you,
Jay
