.. If this happens on multiple PC's there is something wrong in his
account setup. When he logs on, go see what type of profile is
created. Look at his account setup. Do you have anything in the
profile path? If he doesn't have permissions to save his profile
to that path you'll see this behavior. Try copying a known good
account or renaming a known good account.
