Get a successful logon and setup a new administrator account. See if
that works ok. If it does; then you have something running under your
userid that is hosing you up. Save all of your data files then delete
your account and reconstruct it using the new administrator account. If
the problem reappears under your id after reconstruction; you have
something hidden in a data file that is doing it.
