Rick,

went into user folders. There aren't any shortcuts (IM or otherwise) in the
Startup folders for any of the defined users, AllUsers, Ron, or Owner. So i
couldn't move it.

Another silly question from a XP novice. A lot of Marsha's programs only come up
while logged in as me. I assume because they were downloaded or installed while
my login was active. Can items in the Documents and Settings folder just be
moved between users folder, Ron and Owner as appropriate or do they they have to
be uninstalled and reinstalled to get them where we would like them?

thanks again

Ron
