Bad boy Warrior Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Guys im not sure about this so thought to ask you experts. I have one pc which is not on my domain but is part of my workgroup (my mum's computer its home edition) for some starnge reason whenever my mum logs onto her PC and enters the incorrect password it gets logged onto MY computers event log (security).
