Did LANguard give you a MAC address of the offending NIC?  If so you can
look for the station that way if you have documented them.  You could also
send an Administrative email out to all users specifying how to locate the
MAC address on  the OS they run and have them email you back.  When you find
the MAC you have your user.
Good luck,
