View Full Version : XP: Different profiles, same wallpaper

Quick question about something that has been bugging my kids for ages. My kids have a laptop running Windows XP Home with SP2, and they have their own user accounts. When my son changes his desktop wallpaper my daughter's changes to the same one as well, and vice versa, which leads to squabbling when one wants McFly and the other wants "Boys are stupid, throw rocks at them!". Does anyone have a solution for this please?
Thanks in advance.

Cheers, I did ask them after I first posted actually if they were changing it from a locally stored file or not. It seems they were indeed just setting the backgrounds from within Firefox, so having got them to save the pictures to HDD first everything is ok.
Thanks for your reply anyway. :)
