This is rather an odd one...
We have a ClickOnce app that will throw this error when loading between the splash screen and the login screen. It only happens the first time the app is run after windows is loaded, after that no problems at all. When it does occur clicking 'Continue' loads the login form and the app runs without any issue thereafter...
It took a while for it to dawn on me that it only happened after a windows restart (as I only do that once a month on my workstation) and only on some windows boxes (can't get it to do this on my workstation at all, but can on a Win7 laptop)...
Any ideas?
