But someone must have encountered it by now.

I installed the lego spybotic software on an XP Home Edition PC.
Now it only works when logged in as the administrator.  Try to run

What's up with that?  There must be a way to run this thing as a

Thanks,

Don

I would guess that you need to change the permissions (when logged on as an
admin) on the part of the registry that the spybotic software uses to allow all
users change permissions. How you find out which bits are needed is a question
of (A) searching, (B) trial and error!
