Domain changes to workgroup after reboot
New laptop set up in a domain with latest patches antivirus and antispyware. Domain user and computer policies active. User is not technical, family member may be....
Is it possible for a for a domain user (non admin) that has local admin rights to a pc (application requirement), to remove that pc from a 2003 domain without knowing the domain admin or local admin account login/password? Also no other domain to join to. Home netwrok is an XP workgroup. If possible, how?
If not, are there any known viruses/malware that can?
Any possibility this is a glitch and not deliberate action by the user?

Kind of answered it myself, just not looking close enough.
User had "local admin rights" because of an application requirement.
But the user finallly admitted changing to the home workgroup to access other home PCs.... thanks to both
