-woops i read that wrong -

- it is 64bit 2003 R2 server

- copying the gpedit from system32 to the syswow64 folder has fixed
the problem - is this soemthing I can leave and not have to worry
about or is this a temp solution I should delete and not keep?

thanks for all of your help btw!! you've all been quite helpful
