Of course, it is in XP Professional that most people who use it at home who never get past the first account - the Administrator - and do not create a user with limited access rights.
The need to create a normal, limited access, user in XP Professional is not something which is enforced in Professional which is why, I understand, most XP Prof. setups are being run by a home user with full Admin. rights. I cannot see why the Home edition should be more security conscious than the Professional edition, and also cost much less, unless SP1 and SP2 introduced the ability to create limited-access users in the Home edition.
Ciao.
I have XP Pro at home. How do I access the Administrator account, so that I can unzip some files that have been sent to me? AFAIR, the install did not ask me for a password, so I don't have one--that I know of. What an idiot system!
