Problem with XP accounts

[legacy-maidenrule6]

Heres the thing. While on my profile Unreal Tournament 2004 multiplayer works absolutely fine, but when my wee brother goes to play it in his profile he always gets a message up about Windows Firewall and Unreal not being authorised. I really don't understand why this happens because I've already added UT2004 to the exceptions list for my firewall. Any help?? Thanks

your 'rents might be against this but go to control panel, user accounts, and make your bro's account an administrator account... that should work, but i'm not entirely sure....

It's my computer anyway, the parents aren't administrators on the computer. Is there any way of keeping me wee brother on the setting he's already on?? Dont wan't to make him an administrator its my worst nightmare.

soz, i thought that if you were sharing a computer then your parents would be controlling it... it's just i wouldnt let my brother within a thousand miles of my computer and vise versa

hmmmm, i just made a new acc on my comp, and that has access to UT... try right clicking on the UT folder, go to properties and see if the "make this folder private" setting is on, if it is, that might help, if it isnt, try making a new acc for your bro...
