Hi,
My computer was running Windows XP Professional without a login password. Then last
week I tried to start up. It presented me with a login box. NOw I have never set
any passwords so, although I thought it was strange, I just hit enter, leaving the
password box empty. It logged me in but then immediately said "logging off" and returned
me to the login screen.
I have had to install a copy of Windows XP Home (borrowed from a friend) to be able
to get into the machine. That OS runs fine though I was immediately hit with the
virus you mentioned here. I cleared that up tho and one other I found I had. Then
I tried to log into the machine using XP Professional and it still presented me with
the login box. What could it be?? Anyone heard of a virus that does this, and if
so how can I clean it? The Home version I have of XP will expire in 28 days!
Much help needed and much thanks given!
Richard
