Re: Start the following program at logon - Does not respond > Environment Tab

I suspect it's one of the many settings in your domain policy
configuration. I played with it for a while but was unable to
locate the culprit.

There are, of course, other ways to achieve the same thing.
I usually specify a logon script, and inside the global logon
script there is the following line:
if exist \\server\%UserName%\NetLogon\Netlogon.bat call
\\server\%UserName%\NetLogon\Netlogon.bat.
This gives me complete flexibility to run any program
selectively for any user.
