SYMPTOMS
When you log on to Windows NT without restarting your computer, programs in your Startup folder may not be run. You may experience this behavior after installing Internet Explorer.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur if a service uses different security credentials than those of the user logging on to Windows NT.



RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, use the appropriate method:
 * Stop the service that uses different security credentials, and then log on.
 * Configure the service that uses different security credentials to log on as the System account.

NOTE: You must log on as a user with administrative privileges to configure services.
