I have solved a similar issue a long time ago by disabling the Java
Cache. In my current position (different employer, different java,
different windows version) I have not had the issue.

It may be that it is installed incorrectly (Change user /install?), or
it still shares some (writeable) data files amongst users. The modern
Java I have here (1.5.1) will put the cache in the Documents and
Settings folder, look for that setting in the Java CP, "temporary
Internet Files" setting.
