Logon Failure

[Terry]

In XP my computer has 3 accounts each of them log me out
immediately after I log on. Does anyone know a way of
fixing this? I think it might have something to do with
my McAfee Firewall as that flashes on the sceen before it
logs off.

Hi Terry,

If this started recently, boot into Safe Mode and disable your firewall.

If that doesn't work, go into safe mode again and see if you can perform a
system restore to a time before this started.

Clean boot troubleshooting may also help resolve this.

This has the same problem in that I try to logon and my
desktop appears and then I am immediately logged off.
Now it comes up with no Page file or page file to small.
I use Alt-Tab to get a virtual page (article 315270)but
it still logs me out.

I have also tried going into the c: prompt with the XP
CD, but I can not pull the CD to try Nortons Antivirus CD.

Hi Terry,

When you are quickly logged off, what message appears. If you can provide
exact wording that would help.
