Hello,
I have Win2k Pro.
I logon as regular user. It will create a folder
"c:\winnt\favorite". It shows that the owner
of that folder is that user account.
I am able to delete this folder when I login
as admin. However, if I logon as that regular user
the next time, the folder will reappear.

As I recalled, this happened after I installed the
MSN Gaming Zoning software under that user account
via Run As admin.

Thank you!
