Is

     $conf['auth']['checkip'] = true;

in your horde/config/conf.php file? If so, it may be that said users  
are on systems with short DHCP lease times and/or change IP address  
for some reason. I've seen similar behavior when their devices  
(apparently, for security reasons) change IP addresses frequently.  
Setting the above value to false should fix that.
