I have Vista Home Premium set up fo the owner (me) as Administrator, and
another user as a
"reader". Both setups work well except for the "reader" user not conecting
to a "peer to peer"
internet program. My Administrator connects and uses the program fine. I
have tested with the Wndows Firewall on or off; no difference. Any thoughts?
Thanks

What is this mystery "peer to peer internet program"?

Is it compatible with Vista? I would presume it isn't, if you can't run it
as a Standard user....

As I said - if it won't run as a Standard User then it's not compatible with
Vista....

Thanks for the tip. I right clicked on it and one of the options was "run as
Administrator". when I clicked on that, put in password, the program came to
life! Good tip...
