Sure. Then struggle with malware, installed because of another IE flaw.
Don't run your computer as admin.

You should be "Computer Administrator"....PERMANENTLY! Don't install
something as administrator then change your account to limited.

installing Oracle while logged in as myself (limited account) I don't think
that would be possible since a limited account does not have permission to
modify the registry. Finally, there are five other accounts on the box.

If it's "Limited Account" try changing it to "Computer Administrator" and
see if that works.

It is a 2800+ Athlon with 512 Mb of memory and 120 Mb disk drive. I
installed it while logged on as the system administrator. While logged in
as the administrator, I can use the database instance, no problem. However,
I do not like to use that sign on for normal work. For that I use my
non-administrator user id. My problem is that I cannot do a thing with
oracle while logged in as a non-administrator.
