Hi,

I updated Spybot the other day, and saw the anti-rootkit plugins, which I installed just before shutting the computer down and going to bed.

The next morning, when my wife went to log in under her account, she got an error message, which stated that her profile couldn't be accessed. Turned out, it was the case with all four accounts, pus the admin account. System restore to a day prior fixed the problem.

Today, I updated Spybot again, again installing the anti-rootkit plugins. After reboot, same problem. Same fix.


My system is Win XP Pro. Not that it should matter, but the hardware is Core2Duo E6400 OC'ed to 2800MHz, 4GB of PC2-6400 Corsair XMS2 at stock speed. MB is an MSI P6N-SLI - Nvidia 650i chipset. I doubt any of this would cause the issue.


Other protection software I have is - Spyware Blaster, AdAware, Avast antivirus, Comodo Firewall Pro. I keep them all up to date. Could one of these be causing an incompatibility?

Any help is appreciated.
