>Try deleting the account and then reinstalling the
account. Slow XP? You can speed it up by disabling many
of the startup programs (not deleting). How? Go to:
Start/Run/type MSCONFIG and click OK. Go to StartUp tab
and uncheck (disable) everything except your anti-virus
program, if it is Norton it will start with NAV, click
Apply and then OK, and reboot your PC. It should boot in
20 seconds and your mean, lean machine will run a lot
faster.
