Hi - you can't really stop anyone with admin rights from accessing whatever
they want on the computer in question. Why do you want them to have admin
rights in the first place?

Note that you should post this as a new message, not a reply to an existing
one, if you want people to actually see it. See "Help us to help you":
http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm and http://aumha.org/nntp.htm

Also note: you might want to consider using a newsreader like Outlook
Express or Forte Agent rather than the web interface to the newsgroups -
it's a lot easier to do nearly everything there, including searching, which
is always a good idea to do before you post, as well as mark messages to be
watched, and filter based on replies to your posts.

The Microsoft public news server is msnews.microsoft.com and you can
subscribe to as many groups as you like.

For tips on using the web interface, should you prefer to use it, see
