I'm running f-prot 6 w/ on access scanning and haven't had any problems 
specific to roaming profiles.  We've also got redirected folders 
(desktop, start menu, etc.), but I have seen this problem once or twice. 

Every now and then we'll log in and get a default profile.  The next 
login always works.  I see this maybe once a month. 

Are you sure you're not close to the max Cat 5e length?  I've heard of 
things like this once you start getting towards the upper limits of a 
cable length.  Fprot is somewhat... cranky... so YMMV.  Can you provide 
logs for us?
