sharing problem

I am logged on as administrator, two users, I have
installed and use "Webshots" as screensavers and
wallpaper. My logon is perfect, however, other user has
no sharing of this program or files. Shortcut
responds "webshot file corrupt reinstall". What am I
doing wrong?

Some software programs are not compliant with multi-user environments like
XP. If the other user has administrator privileges, log on with that users
account and reinstall the software to the same folder where it was
originally installed. If the other user does not have administrator
privileges, you can temporarily assign it as an administrator account,
perform the reinstall of the software and then assign that user account back
to it's original level.
