When I turn my computer on it says guest and before it said owner.  No one else uses my computer and it will not let me log on under owner.  When I go to download something or run a program it tells me that I cannot do it because I do not have program administrater privilages.  My computer was working up to a week ago and now I need desperate help.  Now I can do nearly nothing to my computer.  If anyone knows something please help me.

I am having the same problem.  None of my administrator accounts (2) will work.
I can use the limited accounts, but I cannot download any Anti-virus or HP updates.  Nor can I access some files on my computer that require an administrator.

My problem started about a week ago too.  I'm wondering if it's a virus.  I have Norton 2004 installed, and it did not detect any viruses, but I have been unable to download any updates.

I hope someone can provide an answer for us.
