Windows 7 Black Screen

After windows 7 users sign into their PCs they will get a screen that is black or dark with only the cursor that shows.  It will sit there indefinitely.  The user can do a CTL-ALT-DEL and go the task manager.  If we kill the run once processes or the explorer.exe process (then manually re-launch this one) the PC will finish going on into Windows no problems.  It will remain fine until they reboot again.

That value is set.  Would it be a start up application that needs to be disabled?

I think we have figured out our problem is associated with a new anti-virus network software that has been rolled out.  Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions and feedback.
