Please forgive me. I was wrong. I just gave that article a quick glance when
I first wrote replied to you. You are absolutely correct. I've been working
with XP home for a while and never knew that it had a security tab in it's
folders when in safe mode.
Sorry 'bout the confusion, and thanks a bunch..
Thanks again,
Dan
