OK, after some testing, and some luck, I managed to figure it out: I assumed that this had to be a Windows Explorer GPO problem, so I looked in that section. I just chnaged every setting back to "not configured" and found that the problem went away. I then worked through each setting and found that "Allow only per user or approved shell extensions" was the problem. Setting it to "not configured" fixed the problem.
Now, can anyone give me a good reason why this setting should prevent a user from accessing local drives on their client PC?

Windows 2003 server - all current hotfixes applied. Using Terminal Services to give users a remote dekstop. Locked down users cannot access local drives (IE, C on LOCALPC), but all other users can. So, I've been trying to compare GPO settings to see if there is anything obvious that is preventing this access, but I can't as of yet figure it out. The same user taken out of the locked-down group is able to access the local drives. Anyone know which setting to look at (you'll be saving me hours of comparitive logging in and out)?
