What happens if you log off and instead of trying a different account, try
logging on to yours again? Since other profiles load okay, I suspect (but
don't know without seeing the system firsthand) that there is a problem
with what's allowed to run at startup in your profile. Most likely a
program (will be listed on the MSCONFIG | Startup page) or a service
associated with a startup program.
