I have a Windows 2003 R2 server that is stuck in a continual logging off state and it will not let me remote into it anymore. The users can still login and use their applications and users in another state can login on the Terminal Server and use the applications as well. When I went to the Application server, I found it caught in a perpectual logging off state. Any insight to what is causing this.

CAUSE
This issue may occur if Microsoft Windows or third-party programs such as printer drivers or virus scanners do not stop and release resources when you log off your computer.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use the Microsoft User Profile Hive Cleanup Service (UPHClean). UPHClean monitors the computer while Windows is unloading user profiles and forces resources that are open to close. Therefore, the computer can unload and reconcile user profiles.

To download and install UPHClean, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
