XP Logs off after logon

by barry . Updated 18 years, 2 months ago

Please Help! Pc uses XP pro. Boots up to logon screen, user types in username and password, starts logging in, desktop background appears, then a window pops up and says “Logging off” and it goes back to the logon screen. This happened after downloading updates for AVG anti-spyware. When the download completed, a window popped up saying that the connection has been idle for 20 minutes (which was NOT the case as I was sitting there watching the progress bar), but I clicked “Disconnect” and the PC the rebooted with this problem. Also, the logon screen has changed – it used to boot up with the Icon type login screen (each user has an icon) but now boots to the classic style login, where user has to type his name and password. The PC can boot up in safe mode.
How can I stop it from wanting to logoff?
