I am running a fully patched XP Pro SP3 system with 3 monitors. I had this problem using dexpot_1514_r1777, and have recently updated to dexpot_ivy_r1805 and still see this behavior.
After the system is locked, or goes into the screensaver, Windows Explorer windows (not Internet Explorer) will visually appear on some random desktop other than where they were, but the taskbar item for that window will still be on the correct desktop. On the desktop where the window visually appears, the window is not clickable: it is only there visually. On the desktop where the taskbar item is, I can only right-click and close the window. Minimizing, restoring and moving have no effect. Less frequently, but at times, the window will visually appear on all desktops but the one where the taskbar item is.
I have no rules that affect explorer windows. My only rules apply to three specific applications.
