The OID is still the same, it is the instance that changed.  See FAQ
entry 23 (OIDs and instances) for some background information.

This is not MRTG failing, it is the SNMP server (W2K) that changes.
Perhaps it is the performance monitor or so that gives you these
stats and somebody changed its settings?
