Not too familiar with NT but in 2k you need to check that there are no locked files in the users profile. If there are, close the open files and folders.
Normally done from the profile servers MMC in 2k at least...
 
Hope this helps.

OP
There are no open files as far as i know, yet i have this problem. The specific user hasn't logged in for a month now, so i don't see how any of his files could be open
