re: existing W2K user gets new user ID Thursday, December 13, 2007 at 6:19 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by rusty jones (5 messages posted) No, never did resolve what was happening. I tried multiple malware scans to no avail. I did about the same thing you did by moving files between identities three times. Ended up re-installing W2K from scratch. The user has not had the problem since. I wish I could have found out what was going on instead of starting over.
