Subject: Stubborn Licenses

In NT Server 4.0 SP3 (and possibly previous versions), for some reason
licenses that were revoked and even users that were completely deleted from
License Manager keep reappearing on the list with a license granted them.
It seems to happen over the weekend, as they usually reappear on the
following Monday. When viewing the properties of these licenses, the date
last used is consistent with employee's last day at the company. We have
tried to resolve this issue without any success. I have not found any
information on Microsoft's site that identifies this problem.
