   EV>On my XP SP3 pc I upgraded Spybot S&D to a newer version v. 2.4 .   
      
   EV>Today I noticed that on the Desktop for the Limited Users Account I   
   EV>regularly use that there are TWO desktop icons to Start the program   
   EV>although I normally Start it from a icon on the Quicklaunch Bar.   
      
   EV>I looked at the Properties of both desktop icons and they both have   
   EV>the same path to start Spybot S&D2.   
      
   EV>What is concerning me is that the desktop icon more to the right of the   
   EV>other one shows that the Limited Users Account has Full Permission on   
   EV>the Security Tab just like the System and Administrator has.   
      
   EV>On The other desktop icon the Security Tab just has the Read and the   
   EV>Read and Execute boxes checked.   
      
   EV>The icon on the Quicklaunch Bar has Full Permission for the Limited   
   EV>Users Account on the Security Tab in its Properties.   
   EV>Probably that is because I used the desktop icon that was on the right   
   EV>most side of the listing to make the Quicklaunch icon.   
      
   EV>I think the desktop icon that Doesn't Allow Permission to Write to the   
   EV>program ought to be Deleted from my Desktop since Spybot S&D needs me   
   EV>to Update its setting Manually.   
      
   EV>Please Comment, Thanks!   
      
   Sounds like a plan to me.   
      
   Some programs do put a second Icon for the Desktop during upgrades when   
   the upgrade is really a full later version and they do not delete,   
   as part of the install, the old program.
