Another quick tip . . .
When you are in "user mode" . ..
You are in "user mode" I hope ?
You will be denied access to the disabling or stopping feature mentioned below.
It will be necessary to "switch user", log on to the admistrator account and then
perform the action.
Out of curiosity, I wonder how many on this thread routinely carry out their business
while logged on as admistrator.
Hoping this helps some.
