I use Matlab in a networked computer with previous users and when I open Matlab at the startup it gives me a list of warnings regarding the directory access to a previous user account. Here is an example of some of these warnings:
Warning: Directory permission denied: C:\Documents and Settings\John.Smith\My Documents\MATLAB\SOURCE June 2009.
Warning: Directory permission denied: C:\Documents and Settings\John.Smith\My Documents\MATLAB\SOURCE June 2009\Bayes Net Functions.
Warning: Directory permission denied: C:\Documents and Settings\John.Smith\My Documents\MATLAB\SOURCE June 2009\Bayes Networks.
Warning: Directory permission denied: C:\Documents and Settings\John.Smith\My Documents\MATLAB\SOURCE June 2009\Contouring.
Warning: Directory permission denied: C:\Documents and Settings\John.Smith\My Documents\MATLAB\SOURCE June 2009\Data.
I tried to select a directory in the "Start in" field of the "shortcut" tab of the Properties for Matlab shortcut, but it did not help.

I bet there's a pathdef.m hanging around that's being pulled in.

Search the computer for files called "pathdef.m". When you find them, open them and see if one contains references to John Smith's directory.
