    First off if the data was encrypted with EFS, you may not be able to access it
    the way you are trying if at all. Assuming it was not, while logged on as an
    administrator try taking ownership of the folder being sure to select replace on
    sub containers also. Then after taking ownership give yourself full permissions
    to the folder and you should be able to access. Folder/file permissions are
    accessed by selecting folder properties/security. Ownership is in the advanced
    page/ownership. See the link below for more details. Though it is for XP, it
    applies to W2K. --- Steve
