Hmm.  Odd.  Jim, can you get down there at some point to investigate?

Sure, but I make no guarantees that the system will function right for you
afterwards, in fact I'm pretty sure it won't.  Ask KB for detailed info on
what this has done to her machines.

They make it so your settings, email, bookmarks, desktop, my documents, and
everything follow you from computer to computer so you don't have to keep
logging in to a specific computer, and so that we can keep all that stuff
backed up.  Breaking your roaming profile breaks things at a level where I
can't do much to help you beyond deleting all that stuff and having you
start anew.
