Post by: ymeyme on March 12, 2005, 02:12:19 PM

I just loaded comcast.net (YEAH< CABLE MODEM SPEED) when i click on IE it automatically goes to the comcast ppage but when my husband opens his acct and clicks on IE it sends him  to our old MSN acct.  so I went to tool and internet options tab but it says "operations have been cancelled due to restrictions on this computer"  How do i change this?

Thats the problem.  When I click the internet options link it states that i have an error "that this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions on this computer"   How do I lift the restrictions?

Go onto your account which is probably an admin account go to control panel - users accounts - change and account and make sure his account is not a limited account, which is why this is probably happening, change it to an admin account.
