| | Password How do I set up password protection on my new laptop (Vista software) so that no one can access my computer without knowing password. Also I'm on a wireless connection with my soon to be ex-hubby. Can he see everything I'm doing on my computer? He has administrator status. |

| | RE: Password If your husband has an administrators account on your new laptop, then he has unrestricted access to all files on the computer. You can change this by either removing his account from your laptop all together, (not recommended) or by changing his account to a Standard account. Does he have an administrator account/user on your laptop specifically, or is that administrators access from another computer on the network?
