Axton, I think you are on to something here. I got into her computer and found she has a standard IP address. I showed her how to do an ipconfig, so she can let me know if she is having a problem in the future. I also noticed, by looking through my arerror.log, I have three other users experiencing the same issue, just not telling me about it.
The error in the log is as follows: Tue Sep 16 10:07:22 2008 390620 : User is currently connected from another machine (ARERR 9093) Tue Sep 16 10:07:22 2008 Client already connected - username:<user>, client-type:Mid-tier, existing-IP:a92cf51a1569bdf1:-72515d6a:11c41fe7e8a:-7fd2, new-IP:a92cf51a1569bdf1:-72515d6a:11c41fe7e8a:-7fd1 - User has Override option Sometimes she has override, but if she's overridden lately, then she doesn't. Anyone have any ideas?

Chances are it is a unique id generated by the mid-tier as the mid-tier servers do not use the actual client ip address.
