I have a Windows 2000 Server, when I right click on the
Reg Keys there is no Permissions option. I discovered
this when I ran Ad-Aware and went to the registry to look
at one of the reg entries it found. I know that
permissions option is supposed to be there, is there a
fix? I haven't found it in the MS knoweledge base.

Thanks.

You're using Regedit.exe, right? Up to WinXP Regedit.exe doesn't have
the capability of manipulating registry permissions. That's why in Win2K
you still have Regedt32.exe. So fire it up and take a look at the
Security menu ;)
