I'm trying to download an update from HR Block's Tax Cut
program and I get the message You do not have"write
priviliges for the NULL directory." Contact your
administrator. Well, I'm the administrator and neither I
nor Dell nor Microsoft can find any info on this message.
Any advice woluld be appreciated.
