I have W2K Pro on both of my computers. Whenever I attempt to log into a user acct. that I created a few minutes before, I get these error msgs.: "Windows cannot copy file C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Templates\wordpfct.wpg to location C:\Documents and Settings\*****\Templates\wordpfct.wpg. Contact your network administrator." The next error box reads: "Windows cannot log you on because the profile cannot be loaded. Contact your network administrator. DETAIL â The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process." Those are my asterisks above. This is a Restricted User acct. that I'm trying to create and access since I've been using the administrator acct. so far. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

I only read through some of the responses....not all. But, did anyone mention the difference between wireless and hard wired routers? Is there a significant security issue with wireless routers. I have also heard of wireless routers kicking off line when the home phone rings. Any other thoughts?
Most wireless routers use the 2.4Ghz spectrum same as many cordless phones. If there's a problem you could stick to 900Mhz or 5.8Ghz phones and you should be fine. Here's link on some security stuff: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;309369
Any wireless signal can be intercepted. With a wireless router the signal is not too strong, so the interception range is not very far. Plus they would have to be able to decode it. If you are living in an apartment building in a busy area, it may be a concern. Hardwired routers are faster. So what you give up in ease of installation, you lose in speed. I have everything hardwired. Its not too hard, just takes some time.
