I have my friend's XP Home Ed. that wasn't recognizing it's cd drive. It
wasn't showing up in Device Manager nor Windows Explorer. After cleaning some
crap off of it with Adaware it recognized the drive again. I then scanned it
w/Spybot. It also found a bunch of mess and of course, wasn't able to delete
everything until rebooting. After restarting the Dell (behemoth) Demension
4500, I attempted to log into the same account that I used before restarting.

Once i clicked onto the account, it >briefly< attempted to login and then
after about 2-3 seconds... it was logging me >OFF<. I didn't even get to see
the desktop it happened so fast. I tried all 5 accounts and got the same
results everytime. Same thing happened in "safe mode" and "last known good".

I have NeVeR run across this before, this is a new one to me. Is there
anyone out there that HAS run into this problem and have a solution to it???
AnY & ALL assistance and suggestions are MoRe than WeLCoMe!!!

THANX N ADVANCE,

That usually is a sign that the malware was not fully cleaned out. Malke has
some great tips on her posts and a search should reveal them.
Additionally... A repair install might get you far enough to recover the
data and, after that, a clean install with all the updates and the security
measures in place before it goes back online would be the best choice in my
opinion.

"In solving a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to reason
backwards. That is a very useful accomplishment, and a
very easy one, but people do not practise it much. In the every-day affairs
of life it is more useful to reason forwards, and so
the other comes to be neglected. There are fifty who can reason
synthetically for one who can reason analytically." - Sherlock
Holmes
