Application error logging is left up to the application itself, writing to
the application log of event viewer and possibly to *.LOG files within the
%programfiles% folder.

Start|Run|eventvwr.msc

Does Win2k have a file that logs what apps are
started during user log in, along with any error msg
they cause?

Thanks. I looked at the event logs some more, and noticed that
the only "user1" specific apps. that started are 4 MsiInstaller apps.
The rest had "NA" under user.

misexec.exe has, which MsiInstaller uses as you'd know, has
"all access" security settings for Admins, which includes "user1"
in my case. Though I can not definitely correlate the error with
user1 starting the MsiInstaller, I see it as the only dirscrepancy
when I log as Administrator vs. user1. When the process is
started (automatically) by Administrator, I do NOT get the
error, but when user1 starts it, I get the error.

You didn't mention the application but I'd get in touch with the developer.
