overwriting of username for DSL sign in

avrilbilyk · 01-02-2006, 04:06 AM

Hi!

I use Speedtouch Broadband DSL link to gain internet access and "something" keeps overwriting my username such that i have to reset to sign in. I have tightened my firewall as i suspected a virus and run various virus checks which all show as ok now. I think something may be lurking in my registry but need help on what to do to track it down and how to remove it.
