Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System Look in the right pane for a value called Wallpaper. If it exists, delete it. You may also want to check to ensure you don't have Active Desktop content enabled. -- Doug Knox, MS-MVP Windows Media Center\Windows Powered Smart Display\Security Win 95/98/Me/XP Tweaks and Fixes http://www.dougknox.com -------------------------------- Per user Group Policy Restrictions for XP Home and XP Pro http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_securityconsole.htm -------------------------------- Please reply only to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
