I have an Admin in XP question...
Somewhere along the line, the remote admin thing turned on, and now on my gaming computer I can't get into the Tools/Folder Options... it's really bugging me, there are file associations that are wrong and now I can't change them manually.  but getting locked out like that is like locking your CD face plate in the glove box, the car works, but I want to play CDs.  And all hidden files and system files aren't showing as well... <_<

have you tried using the alt admin account? it shows up under the login when you're in safe mode. just hole f8 at the loading screen, and choose admin.
that should work fine unless somebody put a password on it.

I want to be admin
I am the admin
I shouldn't be the admin
I'm the only one to be the admin on my computer
now why am I the admin and not know how to kick other admins on the network (which is me <_< )
 :blink: I think I confused myself...
what was I talking about again (give me a sec I'll figure it out...)
