Administrator issues

[Guest]

I see below me a similar question. In my scenario it all began with the
automatic downloading of IE7 which has refused to install on my computer for
weeks. Reloaded it today with the same result, but that is not the problem,
that is simply when this all began. I'm an Administrator but with IE7 AND
other programs, including even System Restore, I can't access or load or
upgrade because, I'm not RECOGNIZED as an Administrator, even though I am
listed as one in the USERS folder. So....since I can't run a System Restore
and also can't run my Backup, can anyone tell me how I can fix this without
reloading the whole damned operatating system again? Thanks.

Since you problem stems from installing IE7, you should post your
question in the IE7 newsgroup *after* you spend some time reading
through the posts there. The IE7 newsgroup is:

microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

There are a huge number of posts so it would be smart to start by going
to Google Groups Advanced Search. Use a search term that describes your
problem, constrain the search to the IE7 newsgroup and the date to very
recently. You can also check MVP Sandi Hardmeier's canonical IE7 site.
Sandi has workarounds, known issues, troubleshooting, and links. This
may be the only site you need.

And no, I'm sorry but I don't have your answer or I would tell you now. ;-)
