system variables reset to default

I have multiple system variables that are setting themselves to default. It seems to do it very random. The system variables I notice the most is pickbox and all of my grips settings. Any ideas. Im running 2002 and LDD3 on windows 2000

That's usually a symptom of badly written add-ons, such as custom LISP
routines, which change variables and then fail to restore them.

Or users hitting Escape to cancel LDD routines.

this happens to us when the network license server
runs out of licenses available and a workstation tries to start a session and is
refused due to no available licenses. that workstation then has certain system
variables (but not all it seems) reset to the idiotic defaults. (120 minute temp
saves ?) I've noticed it affects pickbox, textfill, savetime & mbuttonpan
system variables, I'm sure there are others as well.
