Re: Login Immediately Loggin Off

Hello to all my readers!

"All of a sudden" my system started loggin off immediately after I
login. The login message box says "loading settings" then quickly
changes to "logging off" then after awhile says "closing network
connections" then the login window returns.

A lot of people have reported having this problem. The only solution
offered by other poeple and websites is when this problem has been
caused by "wsaupdater.exe" replacing "userinit.exe" by a registry
setting change. This is caused by an obnoxious malware BlazeFind
related to Internet Explorer. (I don't use IE!) (The people who
distribute this should be ... punished.)

I am experiencing this problem, but none of the symptoms of
BlazeFind. None of the files associated with BlazeFind are located on
my computer, at least not in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32.

I can only access the hard disk by using the Recover Console.

No boot option changes the situation: Safe Mode, Admin Login ... is
there anything else?

The ntbtlog.txt doesn't show anything abnormal.

I have "played" with (renamed) the hive files in c:\windows
\system32\config (DEFAULT, SAM SOFTWARE, SYSTEM. SECURITY), but that
inhibited the boot process completely.

I tried to look at the FireFox install directory, located in c:
\Program Files, but the Recovery Console does not have access to that
folder. Is there a special way to go to that directory?

Does anybody know of another cause of this problem ... and the
solution? A lot of people are experiencing it, if a google search is
any indication. I would like to avoid reloading from a backup,
because it is about one month old, but if there is no joy I will.

My system is "Windows XP Pro sp2".

This post of long enough. I hope someone can help.
Cheers!

The "userinit" cause you mention is one of several possible causes, i.e.
- userinit.exe does not exist.
- userinit.exe is corrupted.
- the system drive letter has changed and userinit is not where Windows
expects it.
- the registry entry for userinit.exe is incorrect.

The cure is simple if the machine is networked, harder if you can
temporarily install its disk in some other WinXP/2000 PC and
very hard if neither of the above apply. What is it in your case?
