Donald:

Did you every find secpol.msc? I am in the same boat you
are and went through the same searches. When I type it
in the run box, I get "file not found". I have Home
Edition of WinXP as factory installed on the HP laptops.

Cheers!

with no file matching this secpol.msc. I am using a
standard installation of Home Edition.
