if i install a program on windows xp (i am the 'admin') how do i get
it to show up on my kids accounts? i had a game for them and it would
only allow me to install it on my log in.

when i went to their accounts to see if the icon appeared on either
one of their desktops, i was surprised to find i couldn't even find
the program under their log ins..

i tried to go in to the 'set program access and defaults' but i wasn't
successful at all.

thanks in advance for the efforts =)

To make the icon available to all users go to Documents and
settings\<Admin name>\Start Menu\Programs. locate the shortcut, and
copy it to Documents and settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs.

Good luck
