Hi

I can't copy files across a network

To be more specific: I can't copy recently downloaded files, whereas I can copy older files

When I check the properties of these recent files, I notice that there is an extra tab: "security"

Is this why I can't copy the files - although the security settings seem to allow copying/writing/deleting

How can I prevent XP adding these properties to new files

You have to have administrative rights to copy these
files. Sign on as administrator or create another
administrator sign on.
