Hey thanks. Permission bits, eh? Now why didn't I think of that?
Oh well, I gave it a shot last night with Full access for everyone
(I think), and no luck. I also checked the Spybotics directory
in Program Files and discovered a user.ini file that's updated every
time you run it. So I ran CACLS and gave everyone Full access
to that file. Still no luck.
I'm gonna forward this to the dear-lego group. Maybe there's an
official solution somewhere that I couldn't find.
