Log in with that user then go to user management in control panel and create a new user and choose 'standard user' as user type. Next time you login use that user and not the administrator user.

(you should use decent passwords too - no dictionary words or common names.)

If you use XP as an admin user you're handing admin rights to every website you visit... they are free to do anything to your computer they like. If you're not an admin XP will ask you every time it want's to do anything serious.


Oh Frack! That is SO simple , thank you Frodo. I'l do to this box now.
