Why am I having to logoff my user account

Posted by lyban (My Page) on
Sat, Nov 7, 09 at 18:15

In the past 2 weeks about 2-3 times in a day when I am on the computer I get a freeze on my computer and have to go to Ctrl-alt-delete to get rid of it.

Then I used to get which program was not responding and then just click out of it and all would be fine. But in the last 2 weeks when I go this route I get the box saying user connected and do I want to logoff the computer. I then have to lof off user and then reconnect.
Why is this happening? Anybody know?

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

just click out of it and all would be fine

You never really addressed the first problem, and now your moving to another problem. Post a hijackthis log so we have somewhere to start looking at possible issues.

Click Here to download HJTInstall.exe Download the Installer on that page.
• Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
• Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
• By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis .
• Click on Install.
• It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
• Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
• Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
• Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" and Paste the entire contents of the log (no attachments) into your next post.
DO NOT use the AnalyzeThis button, its findings are dangerous if misinterpreted.
DO NOT have Hijackthis fix anything yet. Most of what HJT lists will be harmless or even required by your Operating System.

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

Hi I would consider upgrading to a more modern browser like IE7 at least. Tell us what browser you do use.

Please follow these instructions next:

Double click the hijackthis Icon on the Desktop, Scroll down to ‘’Open the Misc Tools section" Click it at the bottom under System tools click "Open Uninstall Manager" over to the right click "Save List" Save it to your Desktop so you may find it, copy and paste it in your next reply..

If you already have Malwarebytes and I think you do, just make sure you click the update tab before you run it.

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

Yes that's ok. Your computer looks ok too. We are just going through a routine cleaning. Hope it fixes issue but it may not, but you will have clean machine when we are completed.

Do this next:

Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop FROM THE LINK BELOW When the window opens from link, click the save tab. Save it to your desktop. Then see below:

Double-click TFC.exe to run it.

Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator

TFC will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.

* Click the Start button to begin the cleaning process.
* Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two.
* Please let TFC run uninterrupted until it is finished.

Once TFC is finished it should restart your computer. If it does not, please manually restart the computer yourself to ensure a complete cleaning.

Let me know when that is done.

Here is a link that might be useful: TFC CLEANER.

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

OK. That is done.

Up date Java and Defrag drive.

Good lets up date the Java now,

Please up date Java to-----> Java6 Update 17
from link below

On that page in the middle under downloads in Yellow click MajorGeeks usa to download Java. Only install Java un check any tool bars or additional software.

Once that is done run ccleaner as I see you have it installed. Then before you go to bed do a disk defrag that may take a while let it run here is how.

Click Start>Programs>Accessories>System tools. Now do a disk clean up let all files be removed. Then do a Defrag on the (C Drive).

You may also need to update your Adobe Reader program.

Here is a link that might be useful: Java6 Update 17

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

OK. I dig the update to Java and ran the ccleaner and then did the defrag.
I adobe reader is version 9 so I think I am OK.

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

So far so good. I have not had the problem, but we will see in the next few days.
By the way. I have not updated my IE. Would it be a large learning curve if I update to 7 from 6. Also if I upgrade, do I remove the old one or does it automatically replace it.
Thanks

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

Lets not make any major changes until we see how things go.

But yes you can install IE7 with out removing IE6.If you're happy with IE6 then keep it. IE8 is also available too but has been problematic on some XP machines.

Others may also add what they think about it

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

A lot of websites don't support IE6 now, so a move up to IE7 would be beneficial. Here is an excellent "tutorial" for IE7 that I found to be very easy to understand.

RE: Why am I having to logoff my user account

if and when you do go up to IE7 there are some very good options you can find through google to "make IE7 like IE6" do that search for good tips and tricks. Also adding IE7 Pro to it will help a lot.
http://www.ie7pro.com/index.php?language=en

I have to caution though in some of the replies on googles search you will find some "hack" suggestions to follow I do not advise those.
