Hi All,

  I have noticed with XP that as soon as a user gets administrative
privileges, that the Administrator's icon does not show at the
user password prompt screen (except in safe mode).

  Is there a way to make the Administrator's icon always show,
regardless of what other users has administrative privileges?

Many thanks,
--Tony


That's only for XP Home. For XP Pro it can be set up to show up on the Welcome screen.


Of course they could just press CTRL + ALT + DEL twice and type in Administrator. But that'd be just too easy. <g>


lol..yep.
