I have Microsoft XP Professiona Corporate Version installed and every couple of days my account is locked out and I can only log in as Administrator. The funny thing is all I have installed is XP and nothing else. I have the firewall up and so, I do not think it is a virus. I think it is when you do the updates and add Microsoft.net update to IIS 5.1. if anyone has encounter this error let me know. Cause even M$$$ has no clue what it is. I have an open case with them and will be looking into this further. I do not want to use a system where I can be locked out of and I wanted to warn everyone else about this issue. If you have any questions or need any additonal information please let me know. Thanks

sounds like a corrupted install, how long has it been on this computer? did you have errors during the install? and how long did it work before this happened?and was this a clean install or upgrade?
list your hardware and software in detail,
including prior os if upgrade.

LOL...

It is a clean install.. I did this like 5 times already and all the drivers are updated properly and all the updates are installed...

I would never upgrade from a previous OS I am not insane...

As I said before Microsoft Windows XP Pro Corporate Version VOL is the only thing installed on the Computer with Tweak XP... Thats it...

Hardware is as follows:
Intel Pentium Coppermine 933 Dual Processor
512 EEC SDRAM (2) DIMMS
2 SCSI 20 GB Drives Western Digital
56X CD-ROM
24X CDR
PC100 Pro Ethernet Card
Logitech Mouse
Microsoft Natural KB
Soundblaster Live Sound Card
Intel HAM Modem using Windows 2000 Drivers (Since there is no XP Drivers works prefectly)
Logitech Web Cam
Floppy Drive
and a Trident 16 MB Video Card..

No issues with any hardware.. 2K Pro and Advanced Server works perfectly...

I was just trying to gather information from others who may have had this issue...

I am MCSE and MCSD... Which I hate to admit that I know M$$ software better than most.

I am always suspicious of TweakXP or similar programs...have you tried NOT installing that? Once I used TweakXP and my computer would no longer shut down, it would just restart...very annoying!
