Default Inconsistant drive mappings

Hi,

A recent phenomemon on some workstations persistant drive mappings seem
to be "changing"
Instead of being accurately mapped to the correct Drive letter as they have
always been...we are seeing some users gettng multiple mappings that just say
"NETWORK DRIVE" there may me multiple instances of this .......a restart
will clear things out....... but We would love to know what theh eck is
goin on here

any Ideas ????
