    story is.... on the house computer which is up graded from 98 to 2000, there are 4 profiles on it. on two of them the internet works fine but on the other two when you try to view a web page it gives me an access denied and a something about an access control list!

    what in the hell is goin on??
    any suggestions?
    thanks

    Are all the users administrators on that machine?, if not then try changing their profiles to administrators

    You could try renaming there profile folders and then log in as them again.This should generate a 'new' profile and then move in the necessary user files from the old folders. Leave out the 'application data' folder though as this contains the setting for the programs. (Where your problem is.)

    I could be blowing it out my hole, but I know this works in 98, NT, and XP. So it should work. ;)
