Hi, there:

I have a Mataframe 1.8 on NT4, Everytime an new user log in, the user get "INF install failure, Reason: Access is denied" error message. I have create an user account for this user on my PDC. Why I am getting this error message?

Thanks!
 
This sounds like an issue I used to see with My Briefcase and Application Excluding policies.

Check your policy to see if there is a Run Only Allowed list.

Try using Filemon from to find out exactly what is being denied (warning, don't use Filemon in a live environment with lots of users logged in!).

Good Luck!
 
Does the error message happen when Internet Explorer is setting itself up? If so you need to go into install mode and run the the file msie40.cmd located in %SystemRoot%\Appliaction Compatibility Scripts\Install
See Microsoft Knowledge article Q237813.
