I've done everything I can think of trying to locate the problem. Server
shows the same log that's how I found offending workstation.

Here is the event from the WinXP workstation with auditing failed events.
Logon Failure:
Reason: Unknown user name or bad password
User Name: "unser name"
Domain: "Domain"
Logon Type: 3
Logon Process: NtLmSsp
Authentication Package: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0
Workstation Name: "Server name"

More Info:
If I turn off the "server" service the failed logons stop and my domain
account does not lockout. Server Service is configured to start under the
local system account.

I have scanned this workstation for malware using Kaspersky, Combofix and
spybot.

SBS2008, mixed Win XP and 7 clients, Kaspersky Antivirus

Check for saved Passwords for the account (Control Panel > User
Accounts > Advanced tab > Manage Passwords) on the workstation (you
need to be logged in with the account in question).

I've seen cases where users manage to get their own domain account into
this list with a password that has subsequently expired.
