I just got a new computer from Dell and am not familiar
with XP. If I am logged on to the computer, with no
programs running, no one else can log on and access the
internet. We have a DSL connection through Verizon, if
that's relevant. I have to log off the computer, closing
all programs, in order for someone else to go onlin. Is
this normal for XP? Also, I've noticed that one of the
programs I've installed myself, Microsoft Picture It,
works fine when I am the logged-on user, but others in my
household can't open the program, even though the icon
appears on their desktop. Obviously, Dell was able to
install programs so they are available to all users, so
how would I do that? It doesn't make sense that I would
have to install a program separately for each user of the
computer. Thanks for responses. Gary
