    FS Permissions in XP

    How do you set permissions on files or directories in XP Home? For example: In 2000 you could view the properties on a particular directory. There was a security tab, and you could add or remove users and set their level of access. It seems such a thing does not exist in XP Home.

    For that matter, why isn't the admin account accessible? ***?

    All of this goes back to why Windows sucks so much, and why viruses are such the problem for Windows users that they are. Windows users always use their home computer with full root access. Again, ***?
