This message may at first seem like an internet problem but please
read on!
My husband and I share one PC running WinXP (Home). So we could each
have our own Outlook 2000 accounts, I followed the MS Knowledge Base
instructions and set up my self as the Administrator and my husband as
a limited user. We can both use Outlook now (although he gets a "not
default mail client message") but we have some other problems I need
help with –
1. We have a cable broadband internet connection – I can access the
internet without any problems but he gets the Dial up Connection Pop
up box and I can't work out how to get him on to the cable broadband
internet connection. I have tried various options in the Control
Panel without success.
2. Our original shared desktop is now "my" desktop. How can I get
his files and his shortcuts (especially these) on his new desktop?
3. I use far more programmes that he does, some of which are starting
up automatically (as I require them to). How can I (a). Stop these
programmes starting up automatically for him and (b) limit the number
of programmes available/visible for him?
I hope someone can help so that I don't regret starting all this!
Thanks
Alison
