Hi


If you have WinXP Pro, you might want to follow the procedure here and see
if it helps:

The referenced page on restoring default security settings tells me how to do
it but not what it will do. Is there any way I can find out what happens when
I reset security settings? E.g., which settings would need to be changed and
why?
