Brian, Have you ruled out any patches/updates that were applied to their machine? Sometimes it's the non-Remedy stuff that causes a lot of issues J.. in my environment anyway.

Turn client logs on at a couple of them and see what fired last.

Their fat client was crashing when they tried to run a search in the Help Desk (version 5.6) form against a person's name. The error is BMC Remedy User Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. Not everyone is getting the error and it does not happen every time but almost every time they search for a name. At first I thought it might have been some sort of network issue but now I am not sure. It just is strange that this started at the same time. The server itself was not touched - no changes. We are on version 7.1 patch 1 running on XP desktops and Server 2003/Sql 2000. I had people uninstall their client, reboot and install User 7.1 patch 5 and they seem to be ok. Anyone have any idea what could have caused this to suddenly happen?
