Bypass locked terminal?

Got your Sherlock Holmes cap on? -smile-

I locked my PC. I returned later, ctl-alt-del, but someone else's username was in the login box. No problem, I thought, they logged me out because they needed something. But, when I "logged in", my terminal was just as it was when I locked it and no network login scripts ran. ?!

How could someone bypass my locked terminal without affecting my session, yet still having NT retain the last logged in user in the login window?

I checked and found that a profile had indeed been created for that user, so it appears that they logged in. BUT, I'm telling you my session was the same as when I locked it and when I unlocked it, the screen popped up immediately and didn't chug to load network files or run the network login.

Anyone?
