Hi Technical
I’m going to have to do a bit of investigating and get back to you. It may be a while as I’m a harried SAHM trying to get everything ready for Christmas as well as think through computer problems 
I’m running Windows XP sp2. As long as Avast! is disabled I have no problems running the programs in my administrator account. I haven’t had the time to properly test this in any of the other accounts. When I try to run Big Thinkers Kindergarten, School House Rock Math Rock, Freddy Fish, Knowledge Munchers w/o disabling Avast! autoplay doesn’t work and my computer locks up. I have to cut power to unlock it. I believe it is Avast! because I only have the problem when it is running. I’ve tried using the progs with and w/o Avast running and it’s the same each time… works w/ Avast disabled, locks up w/ Avast running.
I thank you for your willingness to help. I will return when I’ve had time to study this further.
