Windows 2000 Unable to Copy and Paste

We have a windows 2000 server with SP4 and all the latest patches
running Citrix Metaframe XP.

The problem is rather odd, here is a scenario: I had a zip file I
wanted to extract and move to the Desktop. I created a folder named
tools. I extracted the files to a directory where I wanted to keep
them for future use. I then tried to copy the files from that folder
to the tools folder on the desktop. When I try to move the files I
get no error it just doesn't happen. I could however extract the
files from WinZip to that same folder instead of moving them there
through explorer.


Now for the odd part. I can go to another server and access the
hidden share \\computername\C$. From another computers explorer I
can
move any files I want to without any problems. I can also open a
command prompt and copy or move files with no problem. I tried
renaming the Explorer.exe to Explorer.old then extracted the
Explorer.ex_ from the 2000 Server installation CD. I then Rebooted
the server, but still have the same problems

If anyone could help with this it would be greatly appreciated.
