Roger,
I booted the latptop into safe mode and have looked at the permissions and I
can't see anything wrong with them however, I must admit that I'm not quite
sure what I'm looking for. Can you point me to some info (or provide some)
that would explain what I should see if the Guest account "has not grant in
the NTFS settings of an area"?
And if the Guest account does not have the appropriate priviledge, how do I
go about changing that?
Thank you!
