Hi.. using Vista Home Premium:

I'd like to ask for help with these 2 issues:

When opening programs such as Word, Picture viewer, powerpoint, etc, it
constantly shows the EULA when opening the program... these are ligit
installs, shouldn't one click on 'Agree' do it?

Also:

When going to a folder with photos, it shows them as jpegs, but the option
to show them as thumbnails is missing.. is this possible??? is there a way
to display the photos as thumbnails???

Maybe this is related to the first question? Thank youl!

Maybe the following article will offer some ideas:

That did it, regedit, thanks John!

Odd, my daughter is listed twice, once as user, once as administrator.. I
wonder if this happened while importing her old settings from her old XP
machine into Vista???

Sorry...I don't know why your daughter has
two accounts. Maybe the following links
will offer some ideas:

administrator account in Windows Vista
