WSAEADDRINUSE Error

I get the error message shown in the title every time I try to log on to my second user account on my unit running XP Home. My logon is fine. Here is what info I can find but I still need pointed in the right direction:


WSAEADDRINUSE(10048)

Address already in use.

Typically, only one usage of each socket address (protocol/IP address/port) is permitted. This error occurs if an application attempts to bind a socket to an IP address/port that has already been used for an existing socket, or a socket that was not closed properly, or one that is still in the process of closing.

It maybe you have something starting as a service or in startup for the default user that you then also start again when logging on as the 2nd user.

Are you switching identities?

I'll see if it happens when logging into the 2nd account without 1st logging into my account. It happens when I am logged into my account and then choose the option "switch users".

Thanks...I'll check that out.

Also make sure you Username is not the same or similar to your Computer name and or Domain/Workgroup name.
