Hi Lenny -
Since you mentioned that you did not have a windows cd, I referred you to that article
in case you did not have poledit already installed.
Any time that you decide to manually make ANY changes to your system registry, IT
IS ALWAYS important to make a backup -- even the simplest of errors could cause major
problems. To do so, just
Start>run>scanregw and OK when prompted.
In the article, disregard the info on poledit -- towards the middle of the page,
there is a registry hack for changing the registry value. That's what I was referencing.
Perhaps it might be safer to get hold of an installation cd and go with poledit as
mentioned in first reply.
