I somehow lost the registry key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList. In fact there is only one reg key under CurrentVersion ( WPAEvents ). So that would explain why when I log in as user "ME" the default user profile gets loaded instead of the one for "ME". Also...

well, you seem to be reading in a lot into my reply. i'm not sure how you managed to interprett my reply as dismissing anything. i got exactly what the article is saying. i'm not dismissing anything. if anything i'm grateful for the new info. I still have the original problem which I want to...
