If so FYI that should not normally be used. It gives the user elevated privileges. Best to disable that account and create another, limited user account for this purpose. Call it visitor or something like that. Restrictions are handled by permissions. See these links: How to set, view, change, or remove file and folder permissions in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308418/en-us How to set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308419/en-us -- Rock [MS-MVP User/Shell]      |
