Ok I have removed the task for the live update...i have uninstalled the
live update and she is still getting locked out. But here is the strange
part. The user isn't here today. I just checked her account and its
locked.

FWIW, PC Anywhere does NOT set up any scheduled tasks. What you are
seeing is something left over from a Norton Anti-virus install, which
uses their "Live Update" to update the virus defs.

If pcanywhere setup that task and used the user's credentials (not sure
how it'd do that without prompting the person for his password), then
that should further prove that pcanywhere is a pile of junk. That, and
the user error of allowing a task to be scheduled under his logon
credentials is what caused this, I'd say. If the user just changed his
password recently (if you ask, you'll probably get a lie for an answer),
this is expected behavior. Tasks aren't updated when a user changes his
password.
Can you use a different account for that task or schedule it with AT?
