Windows XP Hybernate Mode OFF
Hello,
I have a windows xp workstation that got a virus and it continues to go into hybernate mode. I have gone into the power properties of the system and turned off hybernate (set it to never).
Are there other places this could be triggered?
If there are multiple user profiles (not on a domain) can one be set to hybernate and take over?
I am checking if the virus still has something going on but until then I want to keep it from going into hybernate mode.

Nothing in the event viewer or scheduled tasks.
