When I try to logon to any account, I'm automatically
logged off. This happens within seconds so I never see any
messages or get to the home page. It happens if I start in
safe mode as well.

I'm concerned this is a virus. Anyone aware of problem or
better yet how I can get logged in without reinstalling
and losing all files on my hard drive?

Thanks,

Ed
