I am currently running w2k SP4 running the latest patches. Today I have notice some weird things. When moving the mouse to click inside the Citrix session notepade started? Next I return to my screen and the calculator is running. I have also had the screen get locked several times and I have to alt+ctrl+Del to get back in? I am running a virus scan right now to see if I find anything. But will take suggestions.
 
Someone possibly shadowing your session? Might reboot that box, could have just been some weird input being processed (mouse clicks, keystrokes, activating programs that you didn't intend to...).

Please always take the time to backup any and all data before performing any actions suggested for ANY problem, regardless of how minor a change it might seem. Also test the backup to make sure it is intact.
 
I do not think anyone is shadowing my unit. It now apears to lock with out any action being taken. I can be using it and pause for a moment and it will lock the display. Some times it is while I am using the mouse.
