Yea.. I was actually in a local security console, but the
options stated "users" & I interpreted that as
meaning "Users" as oppossed to "Aministrators"... guess I
interpreted wrong :(
Unfortunately, Redgedit was one of the areas I
restricted. I didn't want any other user on the computer
to be able to mess things up.. and now look _I_ am the
one who messed up :\
Any other suggestions? I'm locked out of Regedit, "All
Programs" and "Run" on the Start menu does not display,
the task manager has been disabled, Running/Authorship of
MMC not allowed, etc. Maybe I was just being too
paranoid???? :D
Once I DO get this corrected, my next question will be
how to make the above operations available to Admins
only. Obviously I tried the wrong method.
