"Only the administrator can make changes"

[Kryhs]

Some of you may remember my topic a couple days ago about the Dell without the network drivers. Anyway, I got them on here fine, but I'm trying to manage addons for IE and it's telling me I can't enable or disable some of them because only the admin can. Well, there's only 1 user account on this PC and it's obviously set to admin status, so why can't I change any of the settings?

Here is info on the WinXP administrator account.

Thanks, but the main account is already set to be the admin so changing that stuff doesn't do anything. I did learn some stuff from that link, though, so thank you nonetheless

Thank you!

Actually, that didn't help I restart after editing the registry and go back into IE and it readds itself.

Which add-on are you trying to modify?

If it's Windows Genuine Advantage, you can't delete it, you can only disable it.
