Admin rights problem

[BoSZ]

hi

using xp pro sp2

i was trying out some ....firewall and i decided to get rid of it

the next boot i had noticed that the run command and "shutdown" are gone from my start menu as well as settings. I menaged to get them back with reg works. And i thought taht was all but ;( when i wanted to run the task menager i got "..disabled by the admin"

hmmmm im the only admin (and the only account) on this pc so what the heck...

i created one more admin account and everything was rocking beautifully there

so my question is

how to get into deep commands on privileges and user accounts in XP?

have you tried logging back in since you created the seond admin? also right click on "my computer" go to manage, then go to "local users and groups" Then check the users and the groups to make sure everthing is ok.
