Had one like that a couple weeks ago and everything was fine.
Seems to have more to do with these updates and taking domain users out of the
localgroup administrators and putting it in the power users group via gpo.
More and more is revealed as the day goes on.

We've seen this problem before. If the user restarts without making any
changes to the default profile, their profile restores itself.

Reboot or boot this morning "took a very long time and a box was up in the
top left hand corner stating local settings are being applied". Then the user
experienced a default profile, having to set up email, shortcuts, etc... Her
profile in documents and settings
show her profile was updated this morning and no data was still out there
from yesterday.
Only a handful are experiencing this but enough high level users that this
is a priority today to get resolved.

This was my thought as well; what happens on reboot?

XP Pro SP3.
Users coming in this morning are missing their profiles. That means
there Outlook Express email, their IE favorites, desktop shortcuts....etc....
What can I do to save my sanity?
System Restore is disabled on the majority of these machines so the
Virusscanner can delete files without them going into a restore bin.
Any help is appreciated.
For the Lurkers that don't like of topic here is one you can take a
swing at.
Let us know what you know.
Thanks
