Large XP Start Button

[Bushwacka]

Over the last couple of months, at very random times and on different users
machines, when they login the XP start button takes up half of the screen
vertically and the whole screen horizontally. You cannot read START at all,
it is just a huge green button that cannot even be clicked. The only way to
get this back to normal is to kill the explorer process and then start it
again.

All users that have had it are running XP SP2 and all are upto date with MS
Updates.

If anyone has a fix for this please let me know.

What do these systems otherwise have in common? For example, a particular
video adapter and driver?

And do they have video hardware and drivers in common?

Is there any particular app specific to your site that these users have to
run at startup?

Across the two systems, no there is nothing similar at all. None of them
have anything running at statup. Generic network login script is all that
runs.
