PC unlock with smart card

Hi,

I've got a smart card logon system upon WindowsXP in client PC's. The smart
card extraction policie indicates to lock the PC when the smart card is
extracted from the reader. The smart card insertion unlocks the PC
correctly.

In some PC's only when the PC is locked for a long time (at lunch time for
example) the smart card insertion does not unlock the PC. I have to reboot
the PC to get the smart card logon system working again.

Any ideas about what might be happening?, Has anybody experienced this
behavior before?.

Thanks

Fernando
