I hope you guys (and gals) can help me with these 2 questions:

I'm the admin on my computer (my O.S. is Windows XP) and my daughter is an additional user. I recently loaded WinMx and found it does not extend into All Programs under her user name. This is the first time something was downloaded and was not available for both of us. It seems wasteful to have to download the program twice!?!? How can I make it available under her user name too?

Also, is there an online manual available for WinMx?

It shoulld be available under her user name. You can simply go into My computer, then go to C:\Program files\WinMX and right click WinMx.exe and choose Create Shortcut, or "send to>desktop (create shortcut)" Remember that you should do this while in her username. If you get a file denied error, I'm stuck there, as I'm the only one who uses my computer, and I do not have experience with user-level access, but I know some guys and gals here do!

I haven't heard of an official manual for WinMX.. although the nice people at Slyck have compiled somewhat of a guide.. which can be found here: http://slyck.com/winmx.php

Welcome to ZeroPaid, hope you get all of your answers.

Hawkburn: You are the best! :bling

Right clicking on WinMx and sending it to her desktop (under her user name) worked! I never knew I could do that - thanks for teaching me something new. And that Slyck guide was enough to answer my questions for now!
