Toolbar on desktop moves all by itself after adding password

Hi kelly, I think that when he adds a password then his settings are not
saved correctly. Perhaps his computer crashes and automatically restarts...

I am just guessing but he could try to disable the automatic restart of xp
when an error occures, and see if he has something crashing.

Perhaps a driver crashing?

And/Or trying to logg off (not switch user) instead of restarting.... By
trying to logg of perhaps the settings will be saved?

The thing is that his settings perhaps are not saved when he adds a password
and that is why he sees the toolbar at different location than he had last.

Dlope? Do you know how to see the errors in the EVENT VIEWER and look if you
have errors?

For the ones reading technical replies, I would kindly request them to give
me their feedback with another post (in the same thread of course), so I
will know if my advice helped them or not.

Not really sure, still very odd, Kenny.
