My wifes computer is stuck in a login loop. The computer will login you in, the desktop without any icons will display briefly, and then windows log you out. I can start in safe mode with network support and have tried running many different spyware/virus packages to no avail. Here is the log from Hijackthis, I would appreciate if anyone can see something that is causing this.

Thanks in advance,

Carl

Welcome to the forum, sorry for the delay but we get a little overworked most times. I am not looking at anything bad on your system although the log from Safemode won't show everything.

Post here Other Computer Problems and when they get you straightened out post back in this forum with a new HJT log in normal windows and lets make sure there is nothing on your log that caused that.

Ken
This topic has been solved at OTHER COMPUTER PROBLEMS .

How did I get infected in the first place ? Read these links and find out how to prevent getting infected again.
  • Tutorial for System Restore <– Do this first to prevent yourself from being reinfected.
  • Tom Coyote
  • TonyKlein CastleCops
  • Grinler BleepingComputer
  • Geeks To Go
  • Dslreports



Here are some free programs to install, don't leave home without them
  • Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
    Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.
  • Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06
    Check for Updates and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.
  • Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed.
  • Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
  • Win Patrol This program will warn you when any changes are being made to your system and give you the option to deny the change.
  • IE-Spyad
    IE-Spyad places over 4000 web sites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  • Firefox 2.0 It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use them both.
  • Zone Alarm Here is a free Firewall from Zone Labs, I wouldn't access the internet without it.
Thanks for stopping by Tom Coyote , I'm glad I was able to help you. :D
