Setting Up Users in WinXP Pro

[Darth Bubba]

Please excuse me if this has been answered before:

How do I (as the main user) set up a program so that it is available to the other limited users on my PC? The program of interest right now, a advert/pop-up blocker, automatically loads for me, but has to be started manually by the other users. My son, in this case.

Thanks in advance

Go to (C:)\documents and settings\ and find the limited user folder you want. Look in the subfolders for Start Menu and then Startup. Place shortcuts for any programs you want to autorun on login there. Alternatively, you could place a shortcut for this pop-up blocker into documents and settings\all users\start menu\startup.

You can easily play around with shortcuts in the 'all users' folder and limited users' folders in order to build a custom Start Menu for each user. I use this method so that certain programs autoload when my wife logs in but I prefer to autoload with a different set.
