I was wondering if Caligari could explain to me the Administrator's option(WinXP) in setup? I have not been choosing this option because I am the only user and I am the Administrator.

If, like me, you had say a student account on the same computer then the student, when logged on, could read from and write to the TS directory effectively overwriting or deleting your work (if this option is enabled). If it is not then they could not do such harm-they would probably save to the student document folder or similar. Only the administrator (when logged on) could access that directory.

Personally, I never check this box...:) Don't trust the little beggars...;)
