We had the same issue and it was caused by a corrupt GPO. In our case, someone had rebooted a newly promoted DC before it had fully replicated. You can go into ADSI Edit and check the status for the lockout policy there. If corrupted it could very well be different here than what you in your GPO.

Juli 2003 17:58 To: Exchange Discussions Hello everyone. In our Windows 2000 Active Directory, we implemented a lockout policy that would lock someone's account after 5 unsuccessful logon attempts. Now we are having a rash of incidents where people's accounts get locked out just like that. The users do not make any unsuccessful logon attempts, they just login normally and then the account is locked. I checked and these users are not running any services or scheduled jobs under their accounts either. What could this be?
