Login issues after routine security scan (Windows 2000)

WindowsServerATE — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 20:34:03 +0000

We are running Windows 2000 Professional.

Following a routine anti-virus/malware scan, my users and I cannot login.

We get the login screen, enter username and password. The computer loads our settings, shows (briefly) wallpaper and icons, then saves our settings and returns to the login screen.

I have access to files via a live Linux (runs in RAM) distro but cannot find the solution anywhere. ‘Repair’ doesn’t change anything and web searches suggest that re-install may not either.

Can you help us please?

Thank you.

All users login to get “loading settings” a glimpse of desktop then “saving settings” and back to the login screen. Repair installation did not help. What must I do?

1. We have a system with Windows 2000 server and Active Directory. Sometimes it hangs or starts some malfunctioning. Suggest some solution listing possible causes.
