I have a variety of home movies (not recoreded from TV) that I access
throught the My Videos area. After watching them, you get a menu that asks
if you want to "resume", "restart", or delete. Is there anyway to remove
this delete option as I don't want anyone to every delete these files. Note
that setting the attrib to read only on the files doesn't really work as
Media Center then just notes that it's read only and still asks if you want
to delete the file. Ideas???

Don't know about disabling the "Delete" option, but what about using XP
Security settings to set permission? If you have an Admin account with a
password that only you use, you could give the "Video" folder (or whatever
you call it) "Read Only" permission for the "Guest" or "MCE User" or
whatever. When others are logged in using MCE, they can't bypass the
security settings.
