Is there a way to determine the Administrator Permission
RIghts that have been assigned to someone signed on as
Computer Administrator? Although I am signed on as the
Computer Administrator, when running a vendor program
(Norton LiveUpDate), the program aborts its run stating
that the proper permission rights have not been assigned.
THank you, Rawbow

Are you sure you are logged on as THE administrator? You have to start up in
Safe Mode to do that.

From what I have read, XP "Home" Edition does not have a
setup for "THE Administrator". When attempting to logon
to "THE" Administrator via safe boot, there is no viable
password to gain access and it is not possible to sign
on. More puzzling is that LiveUpDate used to work fine,
then as if some permisson rights file got clobbered, it
suddenly stopped working with the invalid privleges
error. Very frustrating. Thanks for any help. Rawbow

Administrator in Home Edition doesn't have a password unless you provided
one. Leave the field blank.
