In our environment, we do not publish the entire Citrix desktop. We use the Citrix Program Neighborhood, and only publish to the user's desktop the applications they need, based on security grouping.

If that is the case in your environment, I think it's a case of Crowley's Law. Perhaps disciplinary action for circumventing system controls?
