Reply: (edit)You might could try Safe Mode. Just start tapping F8 when you boot your computer until you see a menu. Highlight Safe Mode and press Enter. Once there, there should be an Administrator account beside yours. Try logging in with that one. If it works, you can uninstall Roxio or whatever. Don't post if you ate razor blades for breakfast!

Reply: (edit)Find a Vista OS disc (Or use your recovery partition) and put it in the drive and run the recovery console, hopefully you have a restore point loaded from before Roxio. DO NOT RESTORE TO FACTORY SETTINGS! That should fix it.
