| How to fix: Fast User Switching causes lock-up I was wondering if anyone can help me out here.... I have 2 user accounts in XP Pro + administrator. If neither user "logs off" and one tries to access the other account (both not p/w protected) XP hangs. However, XP swtiching is fine as long as one logs off and then logs into the other account. It makes no difference if IE is only running or even a small file or OE is running. It happens all the time. Thx      |

Could that small file causing you trouble, How to troubleshoot program compatibility issues in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285909 or you /may/ need to call Microsoft for a hotfix.
