Hi,

I've been poking around in my Documents and Settings folders, and run into a
problem that I'd like some help with. When I go to c:\documents and
Settings\username\local settings, before my computer will allow me to access
the folder it requires me to enter my microsoft .net username and password.
This bugs me because a) it requires me to enter my password in a way that
seems rather unnecessary to me and b) how the heck am I supposed to get
access to the folder when I'm not on-line (tried, doesn't work). Is this
something to do with the mysterious asp.net thingy that sounds like greek to
me? If there is a logical link to point me to on this, please do. Thanks!
:-)
