catalog.wci could not be initialized error

[capkirk]

getting this error on a PC, what is this exactly?

Content index on c:\system volume information\catalog.wci could not be initialized. Error 3221225529

the user is complaining about the PC being very slow when first logging on the network, could this have anything to do with that?

This mentions the Indexing Service as being the cause of the problem.
