When OO.o 3.3rc6 is launched on a Windows XP machine that was previously running
3.2.1 without issues, it fails during launch with the error:

---------------------------
OpenOffice.org 3.3 - Fatal Error
---------------------------
The application cannot be started. 
[context="user"] caught unexpected exception!
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------


this error is displayed after the Oracle/OOO splash appears, around when you'd
expect the first progress bar step.

In case it matters, this machine has a roaming profile with %APPDATA% redirected
to a Windows 2008 server, with the path:

   \\servername\sharename\appdata\username\AppData\Roaming

Redirection is configured using Group Policy features as standard on Windows
systems. This is a common configuration on business machines. I have not yet
tested to see if I can reproduce the failure without folder redirection, as I
don't have an un-redirected Windows XP machine to test with at present.

I'll attach a Process Monitor log showing the event trace from oo.o startup. For
those not familiar with it, Process Monitor from Microsoft Sysinternals:
  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/default.aspx
is kind of like strace for Windows with built-in filtering and analysis. The log
may be informative. It ends when the fatal error dialog is displayed.
