delete index.dat files
When I tried to log on as administrator to delete my index.dat files I couldn't do so....I clicked on the Administrator icon, got the command prompt but couldn't type anything. I tried it again but clicked on my name icon and was able to delete the files.
Computer seems to work OK; did I do any harm by not using Administrator? And how do I log on as administrator? Thanks.

You did no harm. Your name is the computer administrator account. I don't know which version of XP you have or where you saw the administrator account icon but in XP home the built in administrator account is usually visible in safe mode and not under user accounts. Under user accounts there should be your name and guest accounts. Your name being the computer administrator.
