Sounds like profile corruption or virus problem. Try restarting the machine and tapping f8 until menu appears. Go into safe mode then logon as administrator. If you can get into windows, go to control panel then user accounts. Create new user account then restart machine. Log on using new user account and copy all personal files/folders to new user account.

use F8 and go into sfae mode, this will load a default profile and will allow you to add a new user (to create a new profile).
Then you can logon in using the new profile.
