We just went over this a couple weeks ago. Is there anywhere else she might be logged in to? Any service accounts using her login ID? An Outlook session on another PC she used? Do the logs on the DC (assuming you only have one or two) show anything? They might show which machine the accounts is being locked out from.

The group policy for the domain says lock out the account after 5 failed logon attempts. Of course this person is just sitting at her desk. In her event logs I noticed that routinely she gets the message security settings in the group policy object applied successfully (paraphrasing there). I'm not sure if it is after the application of this policy that she gets locked out. For testing, I bumped up the failed login attempts to 20 and she wasn't locked out this morning. Is there anythingelse aside from failed login attempts that can lock out and account? Is this a strong indicator that someone might be trying to figure out her password or is that just paranoia talking? It only started happening this past week. Any help would be appreciated.
