Hi,
Unless the user has permissions to unlock accounts, then he isn't
unlocking the account. Look at the account lockout configuration in the
security settings. There is a setting that controls how long an account
stays locked for. Is it possible that the timeout (ex. 30 minutes) is
expiring, and then they're logging in?
To troubleshoot the account lockout, Microsoft has the account lockout and
management tool

Good luck,
