Hi- Here is a little issue with a home machine running WinXPpro, on a home network (no domain). To secure our machines from snooping teenagers,...
OK, here we go: First, these machines are all local- none are remote. Second, yes, I am sure I log onto the domain when going onto the...

A bit more news on this: I found that I DID give my son admin rights some time ago. So that is not the problem. It's just something about his...
