We could do with more information.
Can't run it where on their workstation?
What client OS?
When you are the IT director, it's your job to make sure the IT works. If it does work they know already and if it doesn't, they don't want to hear your pathetic excuses.

Have you tried using RSOP on an XP client to see if software restriction is applying?
Could it be coming from a parent domain?
I would also try the GPMC as this will tell you where windows thinks the policy is coming from.

i have tried with rsop. apparently there are no software restrictions policy.
so i have tried to set the software restriction policy allowing users (in users configuration) to run calc.exe by hash.
no way.
now i have tried to do the same for computer (in computer configuration).
still waiting...

Could it be this policy rather than software restriction.

No probs.
