Make sure the users are actually talking about footnotes and not footers. If
it turns out to be the latter, then point out to them that there is a
separate setting for the footer margin (Layout tab of Page Setup).

I have an office of users that this happens to. I can not recreate the
problem on my computer. we are both using Word 2003. When they create a
footnote in a document whose margin is set to 1.5, the footnote line
starts
at 1 inch instead of what the margin is set at.
