BTW, contrary to common practice, users should not have admin privileges. They should be asked for the password when installing software. Otherwise they greatly compromise security and open the door for malware. Whenever I set up a Windows computer, I create an admin account and another for users. There's rarely any reason to run as admin. This is also the normal practice in Linux. On 09/13/2015 01:24 PM, Dennis E.
