ROFLMAO! Okay, yer not serious, right? XP, by default, on a clean install, makes the 1st user an *administrator*. You got it bass ackwards, d00d, it was the other way around. Windows finally caught up with *nix by actually making it a bit easier for the user to create 'limited' accounts, before that you had to be a power user to even *know how to create limited accounts*. XP doesn't 'force' anything of the sort. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 / www.freeyourmachine.org 19:18:56 up 100 days, 20:10, 7 users, load average: 0.11, 0.15, 0.06 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "He who does not put out his money at interest, and does not take a bribe against the innocent.
