Duplicate mapped drive w/ XP pro

I'm running XP Pro on a workstation that logs in to an NT server and Novell Server (via novell client) where the login script resides. My problem is that every time this machine logs in, one (just one of the 8 or 9 does this) of the mapped drives duplicates itself.
The first time I log it, it assigns itself to drive E (as specified in the script). Each time I log out/reboot and log in again, it maps another copy of that drive to an available drive letter, and continues this process with each successive login.
