Can not log into my profile.

I am running a Hp Pavillion Dv8000t, using Windows Vista Ultimate.

This morning i turned on my laptop and it loaded a temp profile, saying that
it could not load my profile.

I tried logging out and back in and got the temp profile and i turned off my
pc and turned it back on and still got the temp. The weird thing is that i
can still access my data (my profile's songs and documents) but i would have
to install the programs on the temp account for it to be used.

Right now i am running a Windows LiveCare 2.0 spyware/virus scan.

How can i get back on my profile and not lose any data?

Same problem here, except no message from Windows when login in.
I'm login in with TEMP profile, but c:\users\TEMP is only minimal - my stuff
is still in c:\users\<MyAccountName>
Do a SET on the command prompt and all the variables refer to C:\users\TEMP
This happened after the automatic update updated Vista last night.
Did you find a fix after all?
TIA.
