<p class="FormLabel">Expected Results</p>

<p class="formText">By default, read permission will be denied to the current user's <b>My Folders</b> folder. A confirmation message will be displayed in the Results Display Window.</p>

<p class="formText">If you run samples that affect security settings, you may wish to use a test account. If you use a real account, you may need to ask your administrator to restore permissions or capabilities that you remove. If there is only one administrator account, do not run these samples as that user.</p>
