So am I confused, that you're still using batch files. Written anything
in BASIC lately? No offense, just couldn't resist. LOL

I have a little batch file that uses %username% to do some stuff.
That works fine in Windows XP and Vista, but in 7, it becomes
username-PC$ - so if the username is Fred, %username% is Fred in XP
and Fred-PC$ in 7. Of course, that breaks the batch file. Am I
doing something wrong or did MS really change this?
Interesting. Just checked on another 7 machine (this one 7 Ultimate
instead of 7 Home Premium) and it shows the variable normally. Now
I'm really confused.
