1.Eliminating Administrator privileges from all users except "Administrator"

Software - WinXP-pro w/ SR-2

When I set up my computer, I gave my user account administrative 
privileges. I now realize that was a mistake as it increases the 
vulnerability of my machine. By taking away administrative privileges 
from my account, I make it more difficult for some nasty thing to modify 
the programs on my computer because my account is no longer authorized 
to modify programs.

Using TweakUI, I changed my sign in screen so that "Administrator" is 
shown as one of the users. My plan was to then remove "administrator" 
privileges from all the other users, but Windows said at least one 
"user" have administrative privileges.  I can get around this problem by 
setting up another password protected "user" that does have 
Administrative privileges, but the restriction does not seem logical.

What is rational behind insisting that at least one user have 
administrative privileges? What can't be done by logging in as 
"administrator" that can be done by User with administrative privileges?

4.Administrator does not have administrator privilege

Windowss XP PRO. Logging in as the local administraor and attempting to
create a restore point results in the error

"You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
Please contact your administrator, or logout and log in as an administrator
and try again."

I get the same error if logged in with the local adminstrator account, a
member of the local administrators group, or the domain admin.

Something simplie I am just plain missing here??

5.Administrator account does not have administrator privileges

Hi,

I'm totally desperate. I've just reinstalled my WinXP Pro on my PC. I'm the only user on that PC so there is two accounts with administrator privileges: Administrator and Ivo (this one I use for log in). The problem occurs when I need to perform some action in my programs, but they keep saying that I don't have administrator privileges. When I look at those 2 accounts a bit closer, I'm unable to determine whether or not they are members of Administrators group because in that case I get an error saying 'Server service is not running'.

Please help me to locate the problem. If you need to supply an additional information, feel free to ask.

Thanks a lot in advance,
Ivo
