FM freezes on initialization

I've installed FM Pro 5 on a brand new networked Dell Windows 2000 box as local admin. And FM fires up without any problem. But when I try to fire up FM as an ordinary (network) user FM gets as far displaying the word 'initialize' in the bottom left-hand corner of the splash screen and freezes, with the hard-drive working overtime. When I go to close the application I'm told FM has stopped responding. The documentation says this can happen as the result of a corrupted font file and to delete the font FM freezes at. But I can't get beyond 'initialize' to see any font names.

Any ideas/workarounds/solutions appreciated.
