Messenger and lsass.exe Problem

Hello,


I installed Live Messenger 8.1 today, and After logging in, (or during the
logging in final process before it gets to load your contacts), lsass.exe
goes to 100% CPU usage and nothing can stop it apart from ending the Live
Messenger task from the Task Manager. I have checked and am not infested with
any Sasser or other virus.

I just tried signing in with a completely new MSN/Live/Hotmail.com address.
Same thing occurs... and I had the same behavior with Live messenger 8, but
not with 7.5...

What can I do?

Thanks in advance.

Try turning off the option to store contacts locally.

Where can this option be disabled?
I've been looking in the options of WLM 8.5 but I could find it.
Thanks in advance!

Menu: Tools->Options...
Security tab
Tick "This is a shared computer so don't store my address book, display picture, or personal message on it"

Thanks it worked!
