HELP: Unwanted Live Login/Web Login

[Guest]

xp/sp2 MCE, Dell8400, 2gb ram, 860gb disk space, plenty free, computer/xp are
up to date, mcafee running/scanned with no issues...

When I open "My Pictures" or other folders with primarily pictures (or
thumbnail views), I am prompted unexpectedly to login to my Windows Live
account/Hotmail. The first time it did this, it had my user name as
"(e-mail address removed)" -- I'm not in Italy, and have a hotmail.com account. So
I was immediately suspicious. Cancel results in an immediate re-display of
the login, however continued canceling does get rid of it and a website login
to my own website pops up -- the type of dialog needed ot edit a website, or
view a website with security enabled. Again, I can eventually cancel this
(two to four tries).

The dialogs stay gone until I close picture folders and re-open them.

This happens only with one account on the computer, the primary. I can login
as another user and no problems.

The Live folks passed the buck around. No help there at all. I was in the
OneCare trial, but it started before that.

Also, this appears to be eating some resources. I get an Xbox Extender "low
resource" warning frequently. Before, this never happened. Again, if I login
as a different user, I don't get the low resource warning either. I think
somethings running and I can figure out what it is. I wish there was a way to
dump a list of running processes to a text file, then I could compare what is
running.

Thanks for any help I can get. I want to avoid the re-install that seems
like my only choice.

this script will output a text file in the current folder

The command is :
cscript my.vbs > my.txt

--my.vbs-- cut here--
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Process")

For Each objProcess in colProcessList
colProperties = objProcess.GetOwner(strNameOfUser,strUserDomain)
Wscript.Echo "Process " & objProcess.Name & " is owned by " _
& strUserDomain & "\" & strNameOfUser & "."
Next
--end file cut here--
