This happens all the time. the temporary fix is easy and simple. 
Find a drive in "my computer" mapped to sys:
open it up.
open the "public" folder
double click on syscon.exe
select user options
arrow down to your login name and press enter
arrow down to login script and press enter
on the very last line type 
	#endcap
hit esc
it will ask you if you want to save. arrow to yes and press enter
press esc untill your asked if you want to exit syscon
arrow to yes and press enter.
reboot
Tell your network administrator to fix the problem correctly and how you
got around it.


Guarenteed to work,
Bill Harding, CNA
