Domain account always locking out

Hello all:

I have a domain admin account "itadmin" in which I just changed yesterday
the password to a new password. Since then, the account locks itself out
immediatley after always unchecking the Account disabled box. This has been
doing it all morning.
I check his account in AD and it is locked. I uncheck the Account is Locked
out box and hit Apply then OK.
One minute later I go in and the account is locked again. It is only this
account since I changed the password. What is going on?

Probably some service or application is still using ol password for this
account.
