Hi.
I switched on my PC...Widowns Welcom sscreen comes up I log in, windows boots up blahblahblah.

Then, a Spyware Doctor balloon thingy pops up saying something along the lines of "Detected undrlying process lsass.exe Do you want to delete after next reeboot"

Naturally, I click yes (not know exactly what lsass.exe is) and reebot. But this time round. Instead of the welcome screen I get a black background and the classic logon screen thing...which i don't want.

I checked Control Panel, registry keys, everything was set to Welcom Screen style login, but whenever I reboot. It doesnt come up.

Has this got anything to do with the fact that lsass.exe was deleted? If so....Anyone have a copy out there I can restore?

When you deleted it, did it go in the recycle bin?

Nope.

I searched in Windows32 folder or something along those lines, and it's infact, still there. So Spyware Doctor must have deleted an actual virus :O
Anyway, I stil have this welcome screen problem!

HELP!

To tell you the truth, you're better off using the login. I never liked those welcome screens.

There should be a copy of that file on the CD. Try to copy it to wherever it's supposed to go.

Last known good won't work since he has successfully logged in already.
