Missing files after login

Hi,

A friend of mine had the following problem.

After using the computer for around one year, she logged into the computer today, just to find every icon gone. It was like the first time she started the machine. Noe shortcuts, not browser addons.

When she clicked on "My documents", it was empty.

However when lgged in as admin, and going through c:\users\USERNAME everything is still there.

This is a company computer, and I'm not sure if it is linked to other server functions, but i dno not belive so.

We a trying to figure ot what could be wrong.

We have tried right clicking dekstop, and "Show shortcuts/icons", no change - it was enabled

We have tried looking for hidden folders, but found nothing.

The system worked just fine after work yesterday, so something happened when logging in today.

Sorry for my poor English. The system is running Windows 7, Norwegian.

Any ideas about where to start?
