Nah, same crap which makes the problem an interesting one.
I've hunt around through MS's KB and it was about as useful as glass
hammer.
I'm sure the information is there already, it's just a full time job hunting
through it.
You wouldn't happen to know if a good FAQ or a guru that I could suck up to
would you?
Just scanning through the thread, it seems like this is a common problem.
I'm wondering if this is just a design fault with XP Home, and whether it
might be a good idea to switch off the multi user function for other systems
I come across.
Thanks for the response though, Bud.
May you win Lotto.
