My laptop is set up with four users (the four members of my family).

I installed VirtualRPC in my own name and noticed that, unlike some XP software, it does not show up in other users' accounts. Is there any way to make it available to my other family members without them having to log in as me?

Not a great problem if they do have to log in as me - it's not password protected: I'm just thinking of convenience.

That is easy. Just make a Shortcut on your desktop pointing to:
C:\Program Files\VirtualAcorn\VirtualRPC-SE\VirtualRPC_SE.exe

Works for me.

Cheers,

Thanks Frits. :D

Sorry for the delay in replying, but my daughter is a Windows XP fan (where did I go wrong?) and I've only just managed to try it. Works a treat!
