Any chance that you have a logon script (or scheduled task) that is creating the second folder?

backup before you mess with registry..

log in to the local admin on the machine, change it to a workgroup, reboot
make sure you're viewing hidden files,
rename all the existing Domain User folders, to Name+.old or move them into a folder called OLD.
Clean up the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
**look at folder locations and get rid of everything with a domain user account name in the path or .bak on the SSID*
reboot
rejoin domain.
