    Dear users,

    Since I've installed NOD32, system's Fast User Switch capability was broken:
    - After clicking on "Fast User Switch", the logon screen appears: OK.
    - But, if I click on a user and type the password, Windows ALWAYS tells me that the password is wrong, for every user I try to logon as. Obviously, CAPS LOCK is disabled (I'm not so ignorant...)!

    If I uninstall NOD32, Fast User Switch is "magically" restored!

    What can I do?

    I've noticed that, simply disabling AMON, the problem does not occour.

    I would send an email to support at eset dot com with a link to this thread.

    If you turn off Amon, you've lost your realtime virus protection.

    Yes, I did.

    Obviously I do know that. I said it only to proof that the problem is NOD32.

    Interesting. Did you recently install Adobe Professional 8?

    Please, contact Technical Support and tell them that you too have this problem. Maybe it's a new virus, a spyware, a keylogger which “alters” keystrokes so that the typed password becomes wrong. This issue has to be taken seriously.

    EDIT: I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Professional 8, and nothing changed. But, after I've uninstalled Office 2003 "Alternative User Input" component (ctfmon.exe), the problem seems to be solved. There should be something problematic in the interaction between NOD32 and ctfmon.exe.
