    Actually, it was said to just be a normal DOS attack when it was reported yesterday, that's the main reason I was wondering.

    You don't understand, the tools aren't hidden, you can still go into User Manager or GPE. The user group just isn't there. The steps descibed in the grandparent post is a group policy *hack*. XP Home was never intended to have a Power-User equivilent account. Nor can it log on to a domain (which a Win9x/ME PC *can* do). If it isn't greed, then how do you explain taking out a feature that has been in every other version of Windows since Win 3.11?

    BTW What are some of the hidden Win2K admin tools you speak of? I'm not trying to troll, I really would like to know.

    Yeah, well that is the point of XP Home. It's networking & security abilities have been puposefully crippled so they have a reason to charge more for XP Corp.

    No, I guess not. MU does quite a few things that they don't. Of course if you're using it on a regular basis, I bet you already have a PC & a Mac.

    LOL, I'm probably the one person in the world that doesn't like Half-Life. On the other hand I know you can get UT2003, RtCW, Quake, & Baldur's Gate I & II for a Mac so I'd probably be a pretty happy Mac gamer.

    Games & variants of common program types (FTP, Media Players) are all Win32 seems to have going for it right now. I'm sure you can point out a billion of examples or niche programs that maybe a handful of people use, and then again, so can I. That's not the point. The point is, there is almost nothing that you can do on a WinTel that you can't do on a Mac.

    Depends on, if you are talking about XP Home or Corp. There isn't a Power-User account XP Home. In XP Pro to enable Power-Users you have to go to User Management in Windows Management (Control Panel won't help you here).

    Try writing to the system (not user) registry in XP Corp as a User or Power-User. You can't.

    No power user account in XP home, either they can do everything (administrator) or nothing (user).
