when i log into my computer, the user, it will say welcome logging in Beck.
It will then say a moment later logging off Beck This has been going on for a week and has been extremely annoying because that cpu is my main one. I have Windows Xp home and have had it since 2006. |

Sounds like you have gotten infested with something that has affected your userinit and until you are cleaned up and the file is replaced/repaired - this will continue to happen. You would be best served doing a Google search for "replace userinit.exe in Windows XP". Perform those steps, get back into Windows XP, scan with SuperAntiSpyware, MalwareBytes and make sure you start backing up all your data. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |

If replacing the userinit.exe based off what you find doing Google searches is beyond your ability - perform a repair installation (in-place upgrade) and that should replace the file for you - but you will have to re-install a lot of updates and perhaps even re-install IE. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
