    Acessing your account. Can the admin use AD or a domain service to over ride the local policy?

    vvcmarttech, sorry but domain admins in the AD can do most anything they want. No hiding from them.

    By default a domain administrator is a member of the local administrators. He has the same rights you do. Trying to restrict what a domain admin can do on a computer that is a member of the domain is an exercise in futility.
