Hi if that Kevin was here I would say! There was a tip on another list to set up one main account to do all reed\write! But set up one as your day to day use without admin rights! Only going to the main account for updates adding software and such! The Idea is if you are unlucky to get something iffy, whilst on your day to day account it will have no access to main programs and stuff! hth Colin Qapla!
