Slobodan,

I am using NTFS - FAT is a poor substitute and I'd like to avoid it if
at all possible.

I think that you are right about the permissions, but what are you
suggesting I do?

Here's what I think you are suggesting: After running fbreseal, do not
shut down right away. Instead, open up explorer and grant permissions
(Or ownership) of the directories (Or entire hard disk?) to give the
user "Administrator" permissions when the image is restarted. Is that
it?

For my testing, I have only logged in as "Administrator", both before
and after fbreseal. What I end up with is "\Documents and
Settings\Administrator", and "\Documents and
Settings\Administrator.NSXXYYZZ". After reseal, I am logged in as
"Administrator.NSXXYYZZ".

Your hypothesis sounds like it is accurate, but does that mean that
fbreseal cannot be used with an NTFS partition? YIKES!!! Or is it just
a bug in fbreseal (Which I think it is - It should handle this issue
for us).
