Hi helpful people. Ever since my "Crash" and reloading of
Windows XP I cannot move or copy anything from the "My
Documents" folder. Here's the message I get [Your current
security settings do not allow you to download files from
this location]. Yes I'm an administrator. I've searched
the "knowledge base" and the not so helpful "help and
support". Nothing! Any ideas would be greatly
appreciated.
