That stupid logon screen isnt stupid.. :) It would allow you as say Administrator have full control of the machine, while preventing other family members from changing system settings or accessing programs (like financial ones and the ilk). In theory the other family members would have their own logon name and such, but with fewer system privileges.. IF YOU DONT NEED THIS.. Then get Tweakui, it will autologon you as the admin if you tell it to. RN> 2.

Its task scheduler is fully functional. == Ross BBS -> http://www.the-estar.com - telnet://the-estar.com rosscassell@mailshell.com | ICQ = 5305939 ....
