Cannot CTRL+ALT+DEL to logon after last Windows Update...

Hi all...forum newbie here. Please don't yell at me!

I spun up a box today with Vista Beta 2 CTP, got all the drivers updated,
etc. Everything worked great. Was able to connect to the domain controller at
work, print to my network printer, and even installed Office 12 Beta 2.
Worked like a champ.

I then asked Windows Update to figure out what needed to be downloaded, if
anything. 11 items and 1 reboot later...I can no longer user CTRL+ALT+DEL to
logon from the first screen in Vista.

Any clues?

Thanks,
Glenn

And yes, I realized I posted multiple times. It was an accident. I checked
the "Notify Me When Posts Are Made" check box which results in an error page
but actually posts. Stupid BETA forum software.

Anyway, if you can help please let me know. If you just want to complain at
me for being a newbie then please don't reply!

It is a bug in your web-based newsreader. If it annoys you, use the
newsreader in Vista Mail in Vista or Outlook Express in XP.
