[Casper] Can't drag items on desktop.

[Ryan Harter]

Hey all-

I just imaged a machine with our standard build.  There's nothing  
unusual about it.  After the image I installed CS4 Design suite and  
Quark 8 from DVD.

Now, for some reason, whenever the user logs in the items on her  
desktop are un-draggable.  All of the permissions are correct.  I  
double checked this by opening the Terminal in her account and cp'ing  
a file from her desktop to another folder that she is unable to do  
through the gui.  This works fine under her account from the Terminal,  
but the GUI doesn't work.

Now one of the really strange things about this is that the GUI  
doesn't respond like it doesn't have permissions to the file or  
desktop.  She can select the icon and it highlights, she can right  
click it and get info, or compress it and it will create the zip  
archive right next to it on the desktop.  But when she attempts to  
drag the icon, normally the icon turns translucent and follows the  
mouse, but this is not the case in this instance.  It highlights the  
icon but the icon doesn't move.

This is a weird issue that I've never come across before.  Does anyone  
have any clue why this might be happening?
