Re: Fast User Switching Problem



It may be that you have recently uninstalled Zone Alarm?
When I had that problem, it took months with my internet provider,
then Dell's tech in India came up with the solution that ZA left a couple of
files in the registry.
It was some time ago, and I can't recall the exact files.

Vague, but it might help.

I'd like to say that all is well; but that simply is not the case. There
is some setting that is messed up when dialing up and connecting to the
POP server. It's like either the prior dial up connection is not
completely disconnecting or the Windows logging off is not being fully
executed when we do a log-off and then log into the new user Windows
account.

I say this because if we do a complete restart; and log into the other
account; and then make a dial up connection; we are able to connect to the
POP server and get our emails.

Is there any possibility that there is a corrupt setting in the registry?
If yes, where would I look for this and what should the setting be? I am
capable of editing the registry if necessary.
