secound problem which annoys me that when starting my computer and after windows loading , a box appears and ask me for a password (which i havent set) i click on ok without entering password and i enter the windows , why does that happen when i have never set a password or another account?

when i click on shutdown or log out , the theme for thier box have changed , log out box now have only log off and shut down now have an old style box with tab to pick option from... images can explain but i dont know how to put them ... can anyone help me?

Press PrtScrn (Print Screen) on the image then go into Paint and press Ctrl +V

Save the image as .jpeg or .png then use Manage Attachments further down below the reply box to upload the picture to PCHF.

here are some images:

This scenario reminds me of an old 98 setup style and I'm sure it's something to do with the theme but it's been a while since I had XP.

I'll look into it unless someone can come up with an answer first.

i dont think itf from thems because i am running the same theme ( windows xp)

do you think its a virus?

hello
in xp go to your control panel >select user accounts >then click on change the way users log on or off > tick the boxes in "use the welcome screen" and "fast user switching" ,
then click on apply options

re the computer spec being seen ,ill have a look into that
