What happens when you click to clear the "Restore previous
folder windows at logon" option?
Did you check your Startup folder...
%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
.... to see if there was a shortcut to your
"document and settings\username" folder in it? To quickly
access your Startup folder click Start, click Run, type
the following command and click OK:
Shell:Startup
When you write "my network" do you mean your
network of computers that you setup in your own
home or business? Or do you mean a corporate
network that you do not administer? If the latter,
please discuss this issue with your system administrator.
