I have an XP laptop that is generating a few hundred Audit records per weeek
(sometimes 20/hour) for no apparent reason. I know how to manage Auditing
via the Local Security Policy in XP Pro, but this hasXP home, with no Local
Security Policy available. Either I need help in installing that plug-in
(detailed instructions, please) or another way of dealing with Audit's gone
wild. Thanks for your help.
