Self Deleting Domain User....

I have a strange problem. I am using NT4sp6a and have a domain that several computers use to log in to. We have one account (one, as far as I can tell) that when we log out of it it will remove the directory it created in "Documents in Settings". This of course means that all settings where lost. All other accounts seem to be acting normally. Nothing seems out of the ordinary for that account and I cannot see anything in eventvwr on the client and server computers. I have tried this on 3 computers so far and get the same results everytime. There has not been anything done to the server that would cause this to happen as far as I know. I've asked everybody with access if they made any changes and they have not.

I have discovered that if I give the domain account admin access under "control panel > Users" this does not happen. I would not like to give everybody admin access to the machine so less spyware/adware junk will get on the machine.

If anybody has any insight or somewhere else to investigate this I would greatly appreciate it. If you'd like more info let me know.
 
i don't know if this is logical but maybe the account has its profile set on the DC
