I updated norton anti virus and a system crash occurred
after a restart and continued to restart itself. I
unistalled Roxio Easy creatot 6 and Norton 2003, and
resinstalled both applications. Now, When I click on a
file or folder, I see "General sharing, and customize" I
don't see the SECURITY tab. Please help. How and what do
to gain my security back. This is messing up many
configations and other applications. System restore will
not work. Please help.
Thank you,
Franklin

there are two ways to do this. first try this: go to control panel>folder
options, then, on the 'view' tab, scroll down and uncheck the box "use
simple file sharing". this should restore the 'security' tab - if not, then
you will have to edit the registry. log off then log on as administrator
(you should only be logged on as administrator when performing
administrative tasks), then go to start>run and type "regedt32". then
navigate to "hkey_local_machine\system\current control set\control\lsa"
then, in the right pane, double-click "forceguest" and set the value to 0.
this should work immediately, but if you want to be safe, you can reboot.
