Ok guys, I've got a wierd problem here where I work, let me explain.
Most of our users are running Windows XP (SP1), and some are still on Win2k (Most recent SP). We're on a novell network (4.90 SP2), and are using eTrust anti-virus.
Some of the users who have windows XP (not all) randomly get the background only after they login to novell. Their Icons and Start menu never appear. The current work around that I figured out was to ctrl-alt-del, New Task, and then run explorer. This suddenly makes their icons and start menu appear. This doesn't appear to happen with Windows 2000.
This has never happened on my computer, but happens to another employee at least 1-2 times per week. I've seen it happen very sporadically to other users (maybe once in the past 6 months). Theres nothing in the event log, and theres no adware or spyware on the machines, I've even seen this happen on a fresh image.
Any of you guys ever seen something like this, and maybe know what could be causing it?
