• Cannot connect to Hotmail & Windows Live says cannot log off MSN account services.

  My problems began on 19 October. When to use Hotmail and move the Inbox, in the box sent to the deleted area, I noticed that the ads running on the right side of the page, were flicker for a moment. They were flickering or give me a snapshot, 1/2 second glimpse of the announcement, which was then directed to the side page humble. This happened whenever I would go with one mailbox to another mailbox. Finally, on some ads I noticed 'ad choice.' I'm here and renounced well over 150 ad sources.

  The same thing would happen on Yahoo Finance. The square ad that was intended for the right of the page, would try to open up to the left. Again, it was just for a moment, before the ads would find themselves on the right side.

  People were told to use IE 9.0 follow-up protection. I watched a video on it and decided to allow it. That did not help, I went back and disabled the follow-up protection.

  People have asked for a screenshot of the problem. I can't provide a screen shot of something which is an event and last only 1/2 second. Ads and tracking cookies and so forth are quire normal and predictable. However, the way in which they try to appear in my account Hotmail and Yahoo Finance is not normal and only started a few days ago.

  I decided to uninstall my IE 9.0 and did. Ads on Yahoo Finance are still there and blink in the upper left before going to their normal location in the middle of the right side. Ads on Hotmail ceased. 'IF' Hotmail is a separate program, then my new copy of IE 9.0 has not touched the issue of advertising and the absence of ads now can be due to several times, I clicked on 'choice ad' and selected.

  Now, I can not connect to Hotmail. I get these messages:

  1. on the left side, he says:
  Windows Live
  Disconnection is not complete...
  We couldn't you disconnect from these sites:
  MSN account services

  2. on the right side, he said:
  Complete the registration
  Try to clear all cookies from your browser, and then close all browser windows.
  How?< a="" link="" to="" "how"="" to="" clear="" all="" browser="" cookies,="">

  The link to the 'how' takes me a sign in Center of Windows help, where I see no sign, index.

  I deleted all of my temporary files, cookies, and browsing history. Yet, I can't properly log in Hotmail, and so far, the action of logging on Hotmail always took me at MSN dot com. Web page

  I have all the above questions, the incorrect display of ads or signature on Hotmail, when I do the test using a different browser beside IE.

  People tell me to repair-re-install Windows Vista and I'm not clear on why this is the fix here. The problem began just like ads displayed improprly on Hotmail and Yahoo Finance. I have subsequently, was to click on 'ad choice' and exclude certain ads. I also uninstalled IE 9.0. When I rebooted, Windows said there were 4 updates and 1 was IE 9.0. So, I went to leave install IE 9.0. I now have version: 9.0.8112.16421 version 9.0.3 update.

  The only thing that happened between the time the ads have been displayed correctly and when they were not displayed correctly, was an installation of 9 new Windows updates, the or around October 13. I have nothing after these updates. Then 19, here are the ads that sparkle, Flash for a split 2nd on the 'left' Hotmail (when I move around the mailbox may box) when they are intended to 'right' of the Web page.

  And now unable to disconnect Hotmail successfully. I deleted browser cookies, I think.

  Someone told me to find the cookies here: %userprofile%\AppData\Roam

  Thank you.

  When I try to connect my computer with XP operating system, I get this error message to: rund1132.exe and cannot log out.  How can I fix?

  Hi KERRYYX,

  1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
  2. When was the last time it was working fine?
  3. You have security software installed on the computer?
  4. What is the full error message that you receive?
  5. Are you able to restart and shut down the computer?

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

• When a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet until the restart network card

  Hello! I found a problem with my system: when a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet, until restarted network card. Reinstall NIC driver did not help. Problem appears on a built-in adapter, in the motherboard and a separate PCI card too.  Same router via its web interface is not accessible. Windows cannot automatically fix this problem after trying to diagnose a problem with his problem Diagnostic tool. After the diagnosis in the DETAILS window, MORE tests, it displays a message like this "computer remote can not receive a connection via the Internet (HTTP) Service Port". "Unplugging" a corresponding Local network connection and then reconnect solves the problem immediately. Switching between users, when two of them are connected do not cause this problem. Important: the problem occurs in the account of the user who was logged on the system FIRST after the PC was on, when the user disconnected on newspapers of a SECOND. If the SECOND user is logged in and the FIRST user disconnects, SECOND can still access the internet. It depends only on the sequence of the user's record, not on the particular user name. And one more interesting fact: after each user registered on and outside just for once, the problem seems to disappear until the PC is turned off and turn it back on!

  System details:

  Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-VLK
  CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 K

  OS: Windows 7 x 64

  Hi, Mahesh,

  and thank you very much for your help! Update firmware driver and router LAN did not help me get rid of my problem, but greatly improved my experience of networking in general. Anti-virus software was not guilty, also, but! I found the "iControl" network software, installed as part of Sogiciel 'AI Suite II' (that came on the CD of motherboard ASUS driverssoftware), runnning and causing not only the problem mentioned above, but would also decrease upload speed up to 0.3 MB/s, when download passes to nearly 100 Mbps! Moreover, searching the Internet, I have found a lot of complaints about the behavior of this software, so that people watch you the occasional installation of this piece... sweet ;) As "iControl network" has been uninstalled (not only turned off in the settings of 'Ai Suite II'!), I'm totally happy with my system performance.

  Best regards

• Computer not finding networks, stuck on the Logging Off screen in Vista

  For the past two weeks, if I simply close my laptop while it is running, most of the time when I try to open it up my wireless network does not connect automatically. I have to click 'Connect to' in my Start menu and manually connect to the network. The only problem is, sometimes it will fail to find a network and when I try to manually go to 'Connect to', it does nothing. Nothing comes up at all. I have to restart my computer. Once I try to restart, it sticks on the screen "Logging Off". I also tried to disconnect just opened a session back, but it's still stuck on this screen. I am then forced to make a hard closed down by holding down the power button.

  Any ideas?

• Remove Windows 7 Log Off button

  Hello. How can I remove the logout button in the Menu start Windows 7 Professional? I already disabled Shutdown, lock and SwitchUser, but for some reason, I can't remove the Logoff button.

  I have already tried using gpedit and regedit, but somehow, it's still there and I can still click on it.

  Another way I have not yet tried?

  Hi C,

  Don't know what you have tried in the registry, but here is the solution. You can simply run the compiled registry change or make the changes manually. Here's how:

  Delete in the registry:

  1. download the file edit registry at the following address:removestartmenulogoff

  2. double-click on the registry file, and then click Yes to the confirmation message.

  3. restart your machine to see the change.

  Or, if you prefer that this can be done manually:

  1. Type "regedit" in Start menu, right click and choose "Run as Administrator".

  2. navigate to the following key:

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

  3. in the right pane, create a new DWORD value namedStartMenuLogOff and set the value to '1 '.

  4. close the registry

  5 restart the machine

• Windows Vista hanging at "Logging Off" of the prcoess judgment stage.

  At the stop, Windows went to automatically install updates and shut down my Dell portable computer. But he is now stuck at the step "Logging Off" and not shut down, even after hours. When I stopped manually and restart, it just goes back to the "Logging Off" screen and I can't do anything else. Several shops here have said they need to do a thorough cleaning of the hard repair disk in order.  Really? Is there another way to get the computer to block this process?  Thank you.

  Amanda,
  If you are still having this problem then validate with what version of Windows you are using.  First thing to try is to start on the Advanced Boot options , and select the last known good configuration.  If this does not work, then try to start safe mode.  Let us know the status.

• Windows XP Professional help... Cannot log on to windows.

  Help!  Thanks for the reply... but it is all foreign to me... I bought the computer from a former place of work so did not any windows disk. I was unable to move forward on a blue screen that reads: a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If it is the first time that you, ve seen this stop error screen restart your computer. If this screen appears again the following steps. Disable or uninstall the anti virus, the fragmentation of the disc or utility backup. Check your hard disk configuration and search for updated drivers. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

  Technical information STOP: 0 x 00000024 0 X 00190203 0X82F42108 0XC0000102 0x00000000

  Can't do everything above that cannot log on that I think I should do... but not sure that I am not IT savvy. I've tried rebooting and without success.

  This basically means that I have to get the windows disc and reinstall? If so what do I lose all my docs photos etc... etc... th the computer?

  Forward the response and thanks in advance.

  Pete

  When you start windows, before the XP loading screen is displayed, press F8, and then select Safe mode.  See if you start a computer desktop, if it isn't you can run chkdsk /f in command prompt.

  If you cannot start in safe mode, you will need to reinstall (or try a repair installation) and Yes, you will lose this data, although there is a way to back it up.  You will need to download ubuntu and burn it on a cd and backup to external media.

• Windows Vista - stuck on logging off the screen

  I have this same problem with Vista Home Premium that others have had.  When I tried to shut down the computer laptop last night, he is stuck at logging off-page - with the active circle always renewable.  After 20 minutes or so I was tired so close by using the power button.  This morning when I turned on the laptop, he went to the same page of disconnection. 3 hours later, it's still there!  My technical knowledge is, to say the least, "limited."  I tried to open safe restart mode and pressing F8, as suggested on other threads, but which didn't work - I can not go beyond the logging off the screen. How can I solve this?

  I had the same problem... This method works.

  Turn on the computer and when the screen shows recovery Windows press the space key.

  You will be presented with 2 options - either to continue with system resume or to remove the Hibernation file and start with primer system - choose the second option - you're fixed!

• Vista Home Premium: Startup time and office flaws often requiring the log off / log on to Correct

  At all to being able to help solve these problems successfully:

  When I bought my office, it came preloaded with Win XP (a FANATASTIC/s o!) with an installation disc free for Vista Home Premium. I have installed Vista until recently due to support XP being more available.

  Problems currently on a regular basis (every reboot) are:

  (1) long startup (sometimes nearly 10 minutes)

  (2) the "Blacktop" (AERO) Vista appears generally "gray" (like Win Classic) but with VERY little
  Services (icons missing, unable to run diagnostic programs, etc.).

  In this situation, I usually 'Log Off' and 'Connect' again and it fixes the problem-"bitumen".
  is back with the functions of the al. Despite this, I'll restart desktop using Services.msc. for all the functions

  are available.

  System information:

  (A) AMD 64 Athlon 3500 + (2.20 GHz)
  (B) 3.00 GB RAM
  (C) Vista 32 Bit (SP1 and SP2 installed (all updates current)
  (D) ATI Radeon XPress 200 Series (current driver)
  (E) all drivers are current (no changes required)
  (F) update BIOS (not not required)

  Note:

  (1) I am the user ONLY if the 'Default' options are regularly 'Log In' (as admin) - no guest accounts, etc.

  (2) I reduced some Desktop effects, which are not necessary (Menu Fade in and out, etc.) according to

  instructions of MSFT community on how to do this and what is safe to disable. This helped a little
  and I don't miss these features.

  (2) I deleted the "Windows.old" folder (as there was nothing to add to the Vista o/s).

  (3) I have NOT deleted the Partition which was part of the Win XP System Restore feature as)
  "I don't know if I should as well as to think that I should keep this system offline and running XP).

  (4) I use a security program that securely wipes deleted data, cache password, etc..
  Under Win XP, there was the possibility of "Protect Restore Points" (not required for Vista).
  I do NOT use the option "delete shadow copies".

  My questions are:

  (A) what is the cause of the boot extended both office and how to tackle it successfully?

  (B) what is the problem with the desktop computer? I don't mind the Log in and out a lot but would like to get rid
  me of this disadvantage.  I would like TO have the Vista boot WITHOUT having to Log in and out to

  ensure that the AERO desktop is available and functional.

  (C) should I delete the files and restore Partition in Win XP? Is this the cause may be a conflict with
  Vista? Also, please let know us if you think it would be better to keep these files available if no
  conflicts are possible or probable.

  (D) what is the path, the file name or folder (path if necessary) which governs the entire desktop
  (startup, appearance, services, etc.). so I can enter my security software to exclude it from
  be affected?

  Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

  Incidentally - for all owners of Scanner Epson 1200U running Vista Service Pack 2:

  YES! Successfully, you CAN install and run this scanner on Vista with the EPSON Twain 5.53 driver without twisting your registry, etc.

  Steps to follow:

  (1) download the file of v5.53 (10245.exe) driver TWAIN Epson

  2) extract to the folder (default location or a location of choice) and open the folder

  (3) right click on the "Setup.exe" file, go to properties and set the compatibility to Win XP SP-2

  (4) run the configuration file and wait for Windows Vista to give up the search on the web, ignore the 'warning' when he

  comes to the top and connect the scanner to complete installation as you did under Win XP (or earlier versions)

  NOTE: You will have to wait a long TIME for the next window appears once complete Vista

  research on the web. It seems that the reason why a lot of Vista with the Epson 1200U Scanner users are

  running out of patience, that it was my problem-so, the Eureka moment happened!

  My camera works great! The only loss is you open TWAIN in the application, is not
  automatically start more. This may be fixable, but I'm glad it works and I don't know enough to make the necessary changes in the registry, etc.

  Thanks again for your help!
