Help. My soon to be ex wife's name still shows up in my temp and tmp file directories, even though I've changed the computer name and Admin name....example....".C:\Documents and Settings\Bob and Mary\My Documents\My Music" How do I rename so only I show up? THANKYOU
 
The easiest way is to create another profile and copy the data to the
new profile:

Once you are sure data is safe, you can safely delete the old profile.

Create a new user account. If you want the duplicate of the current user profile [with a different user name], try this:

1) Create a new account with your preferred name
2) Logon to that account to create and initialize the profile
3) Logon to an admin account that isn't the account being copied to or from
4) Open the System control panel
5) Click the Advanced tab
6) Click Settings under User Profiles
7) Select a profile to copy from
8) Click Copy To
9) Type or browse to the profile to copy to (C:\Documents and Settings\user)

The Outlook Express mails, favorites are carried over to the new account and the settings are not lost.
