Why windows profiles changing

Hello,
We use Windows 2000 (SP4) Active Directory domain to login, but for some
reason, randomly, some user profiles have changed for no apparent reason.
Example: A user who logged into domain from a PC,
used to have his/her profile was named like
C:\Document and Settings\LOGINID
but now, same person (noticed when person got a new desktop)
Profile is now looks like
C:\Document and Settings\LOGINID.DomainName

What is going on?

Thanks
MC
