Not a problem.
You also might want to try a registry error fixer. Probably won't work
though.
Download Registry XP from the JFWLite homepage:
http://jfwlite.com/programs/
and download the CCleaner cleaning tool, to use registry just open up the
program and hit enter on the registry button.

Hope this helps -- although it probably won't

Well, I certainly know where to get a spare xp install cd if I need
one, ---- my mum has one and apparently my friend who's a software
designer can get them easily from his work.
thanks for the advise about Ie Tristan, ---- but my main concern is the
system restore business.
That default accout seems to let me access practically everything on my
pc, and thus I was able to back up the last two weeks worth of stuff sinse
I last backed up.
sinse though it sounds as if it's a registry problem with that user
account, I'm wondering if it might be possible to just delete that account
and using the default, create a new one.
User accounts are pretty much the spawm of satan I happen to think, sinse
every single major problem i'm had with a computer has involved errors
with them.
why you can't just disable the bloody thing!
While a complete reformat wouldn't be a desaster, ---- even if my pc had
literally exploded! it wouldn't have been a desaster, as I backup
regularly, I'd just rather save all the reconfiguring and reinstalling if
I possibly can, ---- not to mention having to pester various developers
and companies for extra registration keys.
That's why I hope it can be more easily fixed.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
Okay...That's something of a big problem. I know you said you don't have
an XP cd, but do you have a product recovery partition on your hard
drive?
I ask because most new computers don't come with installation disks any
more. With my Compaq laptop I have to install Vista from a product
recovery partition already present on the laptop's hard drive. There is
an option to burn it to a cd or dvd, but by and large it is done by
starting up the computer and running the install from a hard drive
partition. If not it might be helpful to get a copy of XP for just these
kinds of emergencies.

I'd really rather not reformat if I can avoid it, not the least because
I don't have a windows xp disk and it'd mean taking my computer 100
miles back to Nottingham to get it done.
as for user accounts, ---- I hate! the things, sinse every single
problem my pc has ever had has derived from them.
I didn't actually remove outlook express while installing java, -----
I installed Java and the access bridge first, this just randomly
happened when i attempted to fix that removal with a system restore
unfortunately.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
