| 302538 | 2004-12-13 06:42:00 | Login as Admin. Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users and Groups > Users. Select the user(s) you want to disable, click properties, and in the window that opens tick "Account is Disabled". HTH Mike. |

| 302541 | 2004-12-13 07:31:00 | i think i makes a difference i just went in, and there were no options for disabling account not even in safe mode so how would one go abuot doign it via editing the registry? |
