| | Re: Administrator's privileges Kerry thank you for responding to my post, but i still can not set it as default. It seem as though microsoft does not give full administrator right as default.. I understand you can get full rights by running gpedit.mcs but it tells me it can not find it when i try to run it.

| | Re: Administrator's privileges Thanks again,I kind of like the ease of use of incredimail Why would you not like to receive it It does not send any ads or anything would the paid version. Incredimail works great with vista except you can not make it your default but it is the only one on my computer so it still works as default.

| | Re: Administrator's privileges Incredimail makes extensive use of HTML and scripting. As a security precaution I read all my email as plain text so I see a bunch of garbage on the screen. In many cases email composed with Incredimail doesn't make it past my spam filters so I never see it in the first place. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca "Charlie Stump" <CharlieStump@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:BC6DC3C5-EF08-41B2-8231-6048FA1B04F1@microsoft.com... > Thanks again,I kind of like the ease of use of incredimail Why would you > not > like to receive it It does not send any ads or anything would the paid > version.
