Take a look at services, specifically you could search for services running as an user account (with expired password?).

I had the same problem and it was a service that was running with an old password.

Also you could take a look at the computer account in your DC, and look the logs of logon.

Did you check it with another user in that box?
Did you check that user in another box?

Looking on my dc's I hae the following entries
Service Ticket Request Failed:
        User Name:      shallensleben
        User Domain:    ASPECTCAPITAL.COM
        Service Name:   exchangeMDB/VEGA2
        Ticket Options: 0x40800000
        Failure Code:   0x12
        Client Address: 172.16.x.x

Authentication Ticket Request Failed:
        User Name:      shallensleben
        Supplied Realm Name:    ASPECTCAPITAL.COM
        Service Name:   krbtgt/ASPECTCAPITAL.COM
        Ticket Options: 0x40810010
        Failure Code:   0x12
        Client Address: 172.16.x.x

I have also checked for the obvious mapped netowrk drives, runas, saving credentials etc. all of which are absent.

This is the only user in the domain that gets locked out. He does switch between out wireless and network environment, 
which I believe should not contribute to the problem?

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
