"Use an administrator account to install the application." This instruction
is for installing CutePDF Writer.
http://www.cutepdf.com/Support/faq.asp#Writer

I am the owner and sole user of my Win XP computer. How do know what kind
of account I am using, and how do I change, if necessary, to an
administrator account?

Thanks,

Jack Crane
 
Either:

Go to 'Control Panel' 'User Accounts' or,

Right Click 'My Computer' then choose 'Manage'
Look to the 'Users and Groups' container on the Left.

Or, go 'Ctrl-Alt-Del' twice from the Default XP Logon Screen - you know, the
one with the pictures, and log on as Administrator - with a blank password
if you don't have one.
Then, go to Control Panel, User Accounts - give the admin a password and
then see who's who!

Does that help?
 
Go to 'Control Panel' 'User Accounts'

Ha! Turns out I'm the "Computer Administrator" and there are no "Guest
Accounts"

Thanks very much,

Jack
