Windows XP automatic logoff with strange popup-message!?
Posted by MaxPetter on November 19th, 2005


Hi!

I really need help! I don't have the userinit / wsaupdater problem, i
have already tried that solution and it didn't help. The thing is
this:

When I logon to Windows a popup-window appears before you can see any
icons, nor the start menu. The popup-window doesn't contain any text,
just two alternatives, "yes" or "no". It's been like this for like a
week and it doesn't seem to matter if I choose "yes" or "no"; after I
click either of them windows just logs on as usual. Until today, that
is. Now windows automatically logs right back out again straight
after I click yes or no in the popup-window.

I had exactly the same problem a copule of weeks ago, first a harmless
popup-window that doesn't seem to do anything, then, after a couple of
days, it's impossible to logon to windows. I solved the problem then
by reinstalling windows xp, but now it's back again and I really
don't feel like reinstalling windows every two weeks.

Some info that may or may not be helpful:
I can logon to Windows Safe-mode but NOT to Safe Mode with Network.
I don't have any password in my windows profile (which, by the way is
the only profile and it has administrator rights).
My computer is connected to a LAN with one other computer (the one I'm
typing on now) and a router.
I regularly run AdAware and Spybot and I have the Norton Internet
Security installed and activated. It really doesn't seem like there
is a virus. Atleast not one that these programs can find.

I would really appreciate help!!! I'm kind of desperate here.

I just answered your first post. If you can't find it, use Google Groups
Advanced Search and look for your name.
