Are they trying to logon to the network or locally when not plugged into the
network? Because if they are part of a domain they will want to
authenticate to the domain. Because if you click on the options button on
the login you have the drop down choice of either the domain or locally.
I'd also look to see if they have mapped drives. Because again the laptop
will try and reconnect to those drives and printers even if it is not
plugged into the network.
