I have XP pro with several limited user accounts. when i
assign a user to the power users group that user suddenly
cannot access IE6. IE6 will launch but not connect to a
site or return an error message. If i remove the user
from the power users group, then IE6 access is restored.
Anyone have any ideas on what is happening or how to fix?
Thanks,
mitch

Did you try restarting after switching the user to a different group?
