My parents' neighbor was doing banking online and couldn't log in. It gave her a message reading, "Session State is corrupted". She decided that maybe if she reset the pc it would start working. When Windows boots it immediately gives this error:




This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.

That's the entire message w/details. It doesn't load the icons or anything yet. Just the background and this message. Please please help me.

She can do registry scan for starters. Tap the F8 key during boot up, choose the option command prompt only, when the C: prompt comes up type "scanreg /fix" (note the space) and hit Enter. It will scan the registry for errors and repair them.

She may also be able to get in in safe mode by using the F8 key.
