xp user access to internet

1 New Member
I am using XP Home Edition and I am unable to access the internet on limited users. I am able to access the internet ok on the Administrive user. If I change limited users to admin I still can not access the internet. I am using McAfee Security Center and I have tried to turn off the firewall but that does not help.

Sounds like it's some problem with the users account, not with it's rights. Have you tried creating a new user account and try from there? Or can't you do that in XP Home?
I guess, you'll have to find out, what's being used in some form by the user but not the admin. Any ideas?

Greetings,

Hi guys, I have put together a flexible client-side user agent detector (written in js). I thought that some of you may find it useful. Code is here: http://fotios.cc/software/ua_detect.htm The detector requires javascript 1.0 to work. This translates to netscape 2.0 and IE 3.0 (although maybe IE 2.0 also works with it)

In the past I always regarded user/group security as fairly tight. It is tricky to implement, but once implemented properly, it can't be cracked except through a dedicated effort. Recently, however, I saw something which greatly lowered my opinion of user/group security. I sent a secured database to a colleague. I forgot to send him the workgroup file, but that didn't slow him down at all. The next day, he sent me the work I had...

Hi, I'm new to Access and have been asked to develop a simple Access system to replace one that already exists. There are five users of the current Access system and each of the users works off a copy of the system on their local machines. I would like to develop my new system as a multi-user system and place it on a server to be accessed remotely by each of the users. I have read that the locking in MS Access can be hellish. Most...
