Some ant-spyware may have removed or quarantine wsaupdater.exe thinking
that it's harmful.

Fix:
1. Boot the computer using your winxp cd.
2. Press r to enter the Recovery Console when required.
3. At the command prompt type:

cd system32

4. Then type:

copy userinit.exe wsaupdater.exe

5. Then type:

exit

Reboot normally. You should now be able to logon. But you're not done
yet.

6. Run regedit (start>run>regedit)

7. Locate the "Userinit" key in:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\

8. modify the entry:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\wsaupdater.exe,

so that it reads:

C:\WINDOWS\System32\userinit.exe,

Note: Make sure the comma (,) is included at the end of userinit.exe

Have you recently removed any spyware? See this link:

Unable to Log On To Windows XP After Removing wsaupdater.exe
http://www.lavasofthelp.com/articles/v6/04/06/0901.html

If that doesn’t help see this:

I am having the same problem as Katrik (happened after removing a virus and
spyware). I have tried the suggested fix with no luck and am now stuck. The
file mentioned in the lavasoft link is not present on my machine. I have
edited the registry key c:\windows\systems32\currentversion\winlogon, with no
luck as well. I am about to resort to formatting and re-loading windows, but
would prefer another option.

Any suggestions would be welcome.
