admin rights keep disappearing!?!!

Hi guys,

I am actually having a problem at work that our IT department hasn't been able to figure out. I am supposed to be a member of the admin group. We are on a domain. The problem is that everytime I reboot the computer I loose my admin rights(no longer in the administrator group) and just become a normal user again. I have tried googling this and didn't get to many results.
I believe IT is just giving me local admin rights, not admin rights for the whole domain.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: It is on Windows XP Pro.

 

Shutdown

Hi,

To restart or shut down a remote computer and document the reason using the Windows interface, kindly follow these steps:

• Right-click the Start menu and select Command Prompt (Admin).
• Type shutdown /i to display the Remote Shutdown
  dialog box (Shutdown.exe).
• Under Computers, click Add to enter computer names, or click
  Browse to open the Find Computers dialog box.
• Under What do you want these computers to do, click Restart
  or Shut down.
• Select the appropriate reason for the restart or shutdown from the list.

Let us know how things goes.

Regards.
