New Member Posts: 3 OS: XP	Hi, We recently had this problem come up. After clicking the user account it begins to log on then suddenly says Loggin off and goes back to the login screen again. I can log in through safe mode ok. I searched around for some help. Mostly found stuff about copying the userinit.exe and wsaupdater.exe. I've gone through all those steps but nothing works. Any suggestions
