User Accounts?
 

Just a query, under the windows(XP) task manager
in the users section is one user me listed as owner
I'm the only person who uses this computer (owner)
for some reason the session is listed as Console. I've
never noticed this before, what does it mean? Shouldn't
it be listed as administrator as I've always had administrator
rights. Any help would be appreciated thanx in advance.

The "session" of the local user is always listed as "console". That means
you are using the local console, not connected remotely.

Assuming you are running XP Home version, you are NOT the administrator. You
are a USER named "Owner" with administrator privileges. To be logged on as
the administrator, you would need to boot in Safe Mode and select the
administrator account.

When I was a child, I remember my Mom telling me, "Son, when you grow
up, you can marry any girl you please." When I became a young man, I
learned the sad fact was that I could not please any of them.
